Any chance this patch can get into 3.6?  I don't know if it qualifies
as a fix or not, but getting it into 3.6 would make it easier for me
to apply other patches to the powerpc tree.

I want you to implement it the way David Daney said to do so.

So you're saying that you don't want this fixed for 3.6?  Because David
Daney's suggestion would require me to introduce a new device tree
function, and that won't be accepted until 3.7 at the earliest.

If it is infrastrucure needed to fix a bug, it would be accepted.  Stop
talking nonsense.
