Go ahead and push it.  FYI - I will update the ocp ide driver since I am
making changes in it any ways.

I have already had to make that break with the ocp usb driver.  If a 4xx
core shows up with PCI and ocp ide or ocp USB then we will need to
address this issue.  thus those dma APIs I sent you are a result of my
concern.
