Any chance we can handle these in generic code?
I expected this request :) Can we let this for a second phase to have
e6500 enabled first?
I don't see the value of duplicating code in e500 specific code only to
remove and combine it in common code in a follow-up patch after that.
Can you share with us a Book3S setup so I can validate the requested
changes? I already fell anxious touching strange hardware specific
Book3S code without running it.
Until a few weeks ago I had an externally reachable G5 machine that we
could've used for this. Unfortunately I had to replace the box with
another one that's not quite as stable. I'll try and see if I can fix or
replace it soon.
