The point is that stuff existent in the current tree for the 82xx has
limited functionality. Take a look at
http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-embedded/2005-April/017948.html.
Current source _does not_ contain any IRQ handlers & demux (which the
patch adds), so the device will remain malfunction. Also the patch has
some 8272 & PQ2FADS - specific bits.

There is no special `embedded` tree - use one from kernel.org or git
repo if you need development version (http://www.kernel.org/git/).
