Breaks the build on some configs (with 32-bit phys_addr_t):

/home/benh/linux-powerpc-test/arch/powerpc/kernel/prom.c: In function
'early_init_devtree':
/home/benh/linux-powerpc-test/arch/powerpc/kernel/prom.c:664:25: error:
comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast

I'm fixing that myself this time but please be more careful.

Cheers,
Ben.
