Is this going in for 2.8? If so, I'll need to apply the

(Adding BenH as these are his patches I just apparently forgot the

I'd appreciate if this could get in 2.8. As this is a bugfix this
should?
be OK during the freeze. Likely there will be more rc cycles where

could be reverted if found to cause problems. But since it's already?
broken, applying this patch to QEMU should not break it more and

the fix on the OpenBIOS side (patch 4/4) would complete the fix
and may

patch is?
independent from the other three I've sent to OpenBIOS so this
could be?
applied independently to get at least the interrupts fixed? if you
can't?
test and apply the other three until the next pull.
Right, PCI IRQs are terminally broken already. This patch without the
OpenBIOS change won't hurt. With the OpenBIOS change, things start
working better :-)
I appologize for being basically MIA these days, way too busy with
other things. Feel free to pick up ownership of my patches if you
want to get them into upstreamable state, such as the SunGEM one.
I don't know if I'll have any bandwidth to work on that stuff again
until later next year.
Cheers,
Ben.
