This is the latest and hopefully last round of patches for adding mv64x60
and prpmc2800 support to arch/powerpc.  It would be great if this could
still get into 2.6.22.

I know Mark wants this merged, and I'm not looking to hold that off,
however the following came up on IRC and I wanted to move it over here
for clarification/list archiving of the answers:


This adds yet another set of chipset drivers under sysdev, that are
only used by one platform (several board ports under that platform,
but only one platforms/* directory).

In my opinion, they really should go under the platform directory instead,
and not clutter the shared directory.

I concur.
