I apologize please see an updated patch below.

Yes, the patch ensures the simpleboot image works on the Yosemite board. I was 
under the impression the code was broken as one can build a simpleImage for the 
Yosemite board as described in Documentation/powerpc/bootwrapper.txt without any 
modification on a vanilla kernel, although the resulting image does not work 
without the following patches.

Oops, sorry I forgot to pull out the debug code...
