I'm really disappointed that you both feel that way.  Why didn't you say so several
months ago when I first posted that?  I also don't think it is a good place, since
I need to expose a bunch of platform specifics in asm-powerpc/ps3.h, which would
better stay in my platform/ps3/platform.h.  When I had that stuff in the platform
directory there was criticism that it shouldn't go there, so I moved it out.  I'll
make a patch for RFC and see what happens.
