Linus,

Please do:

git pull \
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulus/powerpc.git merge

to get some more PowerPC bugfixes, as listed below.  There is also a
defconfig update and the addition of a new processor type (970GX) to
the cpu table.  The first 4 listed under Ben H.'s name aren't strictly
bugfixes in themselves, but are needed for the Cell timebase hardware
bug workaround (the bug is that reads from the timebase may
occasionally not return monotonically increasing values, as they
implemented the timebase as two 32-bit counters).

Thanks,
Paul.
