It is up to Rafael if he is willing/able to rebase his tree, but I
would drop this series until this is sorted out. I think the new
common function should be and can be generalized to work for powerpc.
It would need to make reg property optional and pass in the device
node to the arch specific function.

A short term solution would be just to make the function "#ifndef CONFIG_PPC".
