Thanks. But we are exactly missing the steps that are relevant. I've
pushed a fixed up powerpc-dma.6 tree, which will only change starting from
the first commit that didn't link.

The first commit that changed from the old one is this one:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git/commitdiff/257002094bc5935dd63207a380d9698ab81f0775

which was that one that your compile failed on first.

Thanks again for all your work!
