If you like to see the patches in context, you can find this stuff in
the linux-2.6-denx repository at denx.de

The 256K page size stuff is based on and requires as prerequisite the
"ppc: Add support for bigger page sizes than 4KB on PPC44x" posted
here on April 25, see
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?q=Add%20support%20for%20bigger%20page%20sizes&id=10646

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
