The PPC part is mostly reviewed. The problem is the first patch:
"vt82c686: Implement control of serial port io ranges via config regs".

I don't understand it. Zoltan said Paolo isn't acking it because
he doesn't mind. I prefer to be cautious and think than Paolo is
rather too busy.

Laurent, Peter, can you have a look at it?

Thanks,

Phil.
