Turns out I mistakenly added an mdio type to the platform
of_platform_bus_probe scan list early on in my ucc phylib migration
work, and it went unnoticed. Please do a:

git-revert 3baee955953957be5496cd28e9c544d9db214262

to remove "[POWERPC] Add 'mdio' to bus scan id list for platforms with
QE UEC" (in addition to the one you've already reverted).  Reverting
both these commits eliminates the prom_parse badness messages on the
MPC8360.

Thanks, and sorry,

Kim

p.s. should the stable team be notified to fix 2.6.22 for
Lombard-nvram-style machines?
