Ok, so the old ones were total crap too, but when moving things around,
don't just copy the crap like this.
Look at those two #define's for five seconds, and ask yourself what is
wrong with them. Those macros are not good.
Ok. Easily fixed.
page_to_bus() doesn't even look like it is used anywhere (and m68k
itself doesn't define it). So I'll remove it.
I propose changing page_to_phys() to be:
#define page_to_phys(page) (page_to_pfn(page) << PAGE_SHIFT)
Which seems consistent with many other arches. (And it works on
m68knommu too :-)
I'll generate a new patch with that changed.
A quick grep shows page_to_phys() defined this way in a couple of
other places too:
h8300/include/asm/io.h
sparc/include/asm/io_32.h

Greg
