This patch needs to be submitted to netdev at vger.kernel.org instead
of linuxppc-dev. Please also Cc: the maintainer of the driver,
James K Lewis <jklewis at us.ibm.com>, he at least needs to test
the changes.

The patch looks good overall, I have only a small cosmetic comments:

This should not be required. If you PCI bus is set up
correctly, pci_device_to_OF_node() will do the right thing.
What problem are you trying to solve here?

You should not need a cast here. It's better to cast the data value
in the function itself than casting the function pointer. This makes
sure we notice when the prototype of the function pointer changes.
