This applies to 2.6.35.2, but does not compile:

drivers/ssb/driver_pcicore.c: In function 'ssb_pcie_mdio_set_block':
drivers/ssb/driver_pcicore.c:457: error: 'i' undeclared (first use in
this function) drivers/ssb/driver_pcicore.c:457: error: (Each
undeclared identifier is reported only once
drivers/ssb/driver_pcicore.c:457: error: for each function it appears
in.) drivers/ssb/driver_pcicore.c: In function 'ssb_pcie_mdio_read':
drivers/ssb/driver_pcicore.c:503: error: expected ';' before
'pcicore_write32'

With the obvious fixes (providing a variable 'i' of int type as the
count variable and terminating the line which had no terminating
semi-colon), it compiled OK and the first time I booted up, booted up
OK but didn't fix the DMA error.  Subsequent attempts to boot up gave me
a slew of errors on boot up so I am not sure what is going on there.

You might want to check that the obvious fixes to the patch are
complete.
