That's the problem....  That version of the OpenBios changed the PLB to
PCI address mapping (the mapping is in the PMM0 registers).  The kernel
expects PLB address 0x8000'0000 to map to PCI address 0x0000'0000, and the
PMM registers should map PCI address 0x0000'0000 to PLB address 0x0000'0000.
A near future kernel will fix up the PTM and PMM registers (on the Walnut
only) to match what the kernel expects.

That PVR means Rev D.
