So some of this needs to be moved into u-boot (look at my patches to  
u-boot for the 85xx CDS support, and support in the current  
powerpc.git tree).  A lot of the PCI initialization is now there.   
However, the interrupt maps, while properly setup in the current 85xx  
u-boot oftree.dts files, is currently meaningless.  I may be wrong,  
but I thought support for getting the map from the flat-dev tree was  
still pending....
