I tried your current cell-2.6.git #cell_next branch with ps3_defconfig and
get these. ps3_defconfig has

 CONFIG_CBE_CPUFREQ=m
 CONFIG_CBE_CPUFREQ_SPU_GOVERNOR=m

I'm not sure if this patch is the one that introduced the problem though.
I guess we need to make an adjustment in the Kconfig.  I'll be away the
rest of this week, and will look at it next week if you don't.
