I'm a bit worried it might break one of the many old obscure platforms
we have that aren't well tested.

Please don't apply the new DMA mapping code if you don't be sure if it 
works on all supported PowerPC machines. Is the new DMA mapping code 
really necessary? It's not really nice, to rewrote code if the old code 
works perfect. We must not forget, that we work for the end users. Does 
the end user have advantages with this new code? Is it faster? The old 
code works without any problems. I am also worried about this code. How 
can I test this new DMA mapping code?

Thanks
