That doesn't look right.  The code is there doing something, why is it
just being removed?  I would think the change would be to use
CONFIG_PPC_47x?

Or if the code there isn't needed any longer, the changelog should say
why.
Ah right, I tripped on this one too when reviewing then figured it out
but I agree, the changelog should be clearer.

If you notice, the original ifdef was in a function that is only ever
used on 44x. There's a separate function that handles 47x. I suppose
this is a leftover of the initial port which somebody forgot to remove.

So the patch is fine, but yes, the changelog could be made clearer.

Cheers,
Ben.
