Right, and further just don't use the microcode patches at all......

The patches seem to cause more problems than they fix, which
isn't necessarily the patches themselves, but a combination of
using the proper patch for the proper silicon revision and proper
driver modifications.  I don't even understand all of the permutations,
I can't get anyone from Motorola to explan all of them, and I simply
have some combinations that work and others that don't.

I dropped those functions there to make sure I don't lose them,
and I doubt they will work on anything other than one spcific
combination I was testing.

The microcode patches don't "fix" anything, since nothing is
really broken.  They simply relocate devices in the parameter RAM
memory space when something like Ethernet spills into a following
memory space.
