Hi !

That's an interesting way to do it :-)

However, I suppose a better approach would be to fix cardbus to call the
proper fixup code in the arch, ie, dma isn't the only thing that's going
to be broken without that (at least maybe on pmac that is, but machines
with an iommu will suffer etc...)

I will try to have a look as soon as I'm done with porting the pmac IDE
driver to libata.

Cheers,
Ben.
