They are welcome here, but keep in mind that some of them could be
better suited for LKML. It depends on what the problem is. If it seems
to be machine/PPC-specific, post here. If it's generic kernel (MM, other
things), post on LKML. If unsure, you could also crosspost on both lists,
but try to keep that to a minimum.

There's also the debian-ppc mailing list, for things not directly related
to the kernel but to the rest of the distro you run (some kernel problems
are also discussed there, but I'm not sure if they're interested in
mainline kernel bugs there or not).
