Hi, I'm using a Xilinx ML510 it features a PowerPC 440 cpu inside a Virtex-5 FPGA. The board also contains a ALI M1533 south bridge for IDE, USB and Audio. I did a lot of work to get the pci bus working on this board and it works correctly but the default init code of the alim15x3 driver doesn't work for me. The driver explicitly disabled some initialization code for powerpc after uncommenting this code it works properly. Benjamin Herrenschmidt and I think this !CONFIG_PPC check should be removed because the system behaves like a real 'x86' system (also the i8259 interrupt controller is used).
