That surprised me too, I figured it must have been a close enough
match (at least in the 2.6.29.1 time frame which is where I'm trying
to merge the BG/P patches up from.  The kittyhawk patches don't even
use this, so its possible we could just remove it.


_GLOBAL(__setup_cpu_460ex)
_GLOBAL(__setup_cpu_460gt)
        mflr    r4
        bl      __init_fpu_44x
        bl      __fixup_440A_mcheck
        mtlr    r4
        blr

Looks like the 460 setup invokes a bunch of 440 calls!  Would you
prefer I setup my own entry point (setup_cpu_bgp or setup_cpu_450)
which makes the same calls?
