Hi!
Did you try to use PHYS_OFFSET > 0 ? __pa() ist still (as of
d3fbd83ff545e49e2a0a5ca0f00dda4eedaf8be7) defined as (casts omitted):
#define __pa(x) (x - (x < CKSEG0 ? PAGE_OFFSET:CKSEG0) + PHYS_OFFSET)
This gives __pa(CKSEG0) == PHYS_OFFSET, which will never work for
PHYS_OFFSET > 0. A quick fix (assuming this was the cause for failure)
could be:

Of course, "#define PAGE_OFFSET (CAC_BASE + PHYS_OFFSET)" is also needed.
kind regards

Backported the patches that bring in PHYS_OFFSET and tried both with and without
Frank's patches to remove CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64 from the Makefile, plus this
change, and still no go. W/o CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64, both the vmlinux and
vmlinux.32 targets just silently hang. With CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64 in the Makefile,
the same Prom crash.
