Xilinx PowerPC

I have the start of a lltemac based on the new XPS_LL_TEMAC from EDK
9.2. I'm currently in the process of upgrading my design to 9.2. So I
will be very much interested in the driver working ;).

I'll see what I can get cleaned up and posted somewhere, if you'd like
to take a look at it.

Thanks,

    I have alot of work to do on our stuff, I might as well see if I can
move to the powerpc tree at the same time.

    BTW is there even the beginings of a non-xilinx lltemac driver out
there ? There were hints on the list, but I have not seen anything.

    I would be happy to help advance the ball on anything anyone has
started.
