OK, I've pulled these patches out.

For the MMC issue I suggest using ifdef CONFIG_PPC and mfspr(SPRN_SVR) like
the clock driver does[1] and we can revisit the issue if/when we need to do
something similar on an ARM chip.

[1] One of the issues with Arnd's approach is that it wouldn't have worked for
early things like the clock driver, and he didn't seem to mind using ifdef and
mfspr() there.
