Applied, thanks for fixing it.

Since it is the second time this ->parent special case bited us in the *ss:

pmac_ide_macio_attach():
...
	hw.dev = &mdev->bus->pdev->dev;
	hw.parent = &mdev->ofdev.dev;
...

I again wonder what is the reason for having different struct device-s used
for DBDMA and for device tree on MACIO PMAC controllers.  Maybe there is no
real reason after all and we can use &mdev->ofdev.dev also for hwif->dev?

Thanks,
Bart
