Seems like the only reason to need that is the setting of
primary_phb_addr.  Can't that information be derived out of the device
tree instead? That'd avoid alot of code duplication (code that includes
ifdefs, FWIW :-)

It just seems like a slippery slope. I'm not objecting directly to this
patch, but I think it should be fixed for the longer term.
