John,
In case you cannot find it, here is a copy of David's patch.
Larry
From David Woodhouse.
It's very simple... if we use inw instead of readw for the faulting I/O
access, then the machine check gets trapped. We can do this because on
PPC, PCI I/O is actually memory-mapped. The CPU doesn't have a separate
I/O space and instructions. So we just compensate for the address at
which PCI I/O is mapped, and abuse inw().
Then we make bcm43xx_phy_read() print the register it tried to access
whenever it gets 0xFFFF, and stick a WARN_ON(1) in the machine check
handler when it detects a machine check caused by an I/O access...
