FWIW, I wonder if keeping that type is worth bothering.
Something like
old_reloc(__be32 reloc)
{
	u32 v = be32_to_cpu(reloc);
	int offset, type;

#if (defined(mc68000) && !defined(CONFIG_COLDFIRE))
	/* old m68k uses unusual format - type is in lower bits of octet 3 */
	type = v % 4;
	offset = (int)v / 4;
#else
	/* everything else (including coldfire) has it in upper bits of octet 0 */
	type = v >> 30;
	offset = (int)(v << 2) >> 2; /* or (v & 0x1fffffff) - (v & 0x20000000) * 4 */
#endif
	...

and to hell with bitfields, aliasing unions, etc.  Unless I'm misreading
the whole thing, that is...  Greg?
