I'm not sure if this should be changed in the mainline.  This card works
out of the box when used with a generic x86 PC, but not when used with
a sequoia.  But, maybe it's just me climbing the PPC learning curve.

Nah, I think 256M is ridiculously small :-) I think the .dts for that
board should be changed, there is plenty of physical address space
available on those chips since it's using a 36-bit bus.

Cheers,

Sheepish grin:  I did more checking, and the current mainline actually has
this set to 1 GB.

The .dts I'm using dates back to 2.6.25.  I had started modifying it for some
custom peripherals we have hacked onto a Sequoia, and I missed the changes
that were made between .25 and .28.

If you think 1 GB is a suitable default, then no further changes are needed.
If you think it should be bigger than 1 GB, then I could submit a patch.
