yes, they're not exactly compatible...

interesting, its called "SEC Lite" and its version register does
indeed say 2. I see it has a single channel FIFO instead of a ring,
that the SEC v1.x (MPC185) used, so you probably don't have to
rewrite talitos_submit.

I couldn't find the IRQ line in the MPC855RM - if there's no IRQ
line, then that's a problem.

the descriptor type enumeration isn't uniform across into the mpc8xx
SEC version, e.g., the SEC Lite doesn't support the ipsec_esp
descriptor type, represented in mpc8xxx SEC versions as the second
bit, so this descriptor-types-mask setting should be fixed to at
least omit that since the driver checks for, and uses it if
available.

might want to go through the defines in talitos.h, e.g,
TALITOS_MCR_SWR is 0x1 on mpc8xxx vs. 0x10000000 on
mpc8xx (I suppose CONFIG_PPC_8xx can be used as the ifdef, btw).
Descriptor header and pointer formats, along with field locations,
sizes, and enumerations may also be different.
It also appears the SEC Lite doesn't support scatter-gather tables,
which will make performance hurt for fragmented (large) packet sizes.
