Yes I see it - thats great thanks. I will go through it and compare.

Well since it seems we are going for the same goal, and you are
actively submitting patches towards it, I'm very happy. I mostly agree
with your points, so will not respond bit by bit. The easiest route to
the goal is the right one, so let's run with what you propose and see
how we go. Thanks for taking it up.

[another big snip]

I had a go at bringing PPC into the generic board patches. Apart from
the cloud of #ifdefs as expected it is not too bad. And those can be
dealt with by initcalls.

Am hoping we can get there soon!

Regards,
Simon
