 There exists another whole class of cpu cache issues which currently

+What: The arch/ppc and include/asm-ppc directories
+When: Jun 2008
+Why:  The arch/powerpc tree is the merged architecture for ppc32 and ppc64
+      platforms.  Currently there are efforts underway to port the remaining
+      arch/ppc platforms to the merged tree.  New submissions to the arch/ppc
+      tree have been frozen with the 2.6.22 kernel release and that tree will
+      remain in bug-fix only mode until its scheduled removal.  Platforms
+      that are not ported by June 2008 will be removed due to the lack of an
+      interested maintainer.

 child node is a full node structure itself as defined above.
 
+NOTE: The above definition requires that all property definitions for

+   k) Global Utilities Block
+
+   The global utilities block controls power management, I/O device
+   enabling, power-on-reset configuration monitoring, general-purpose
+   I/O signal configuration, alternate function selection for multiplexed
+   signals, and clock control.
+
+   Required properties:
+
+    - compatible : Should define the compatible device type for
+      global-utilities.
+    - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device.
+
+  Recommended properties:
+
+    - fsl,has-rstcr : Indicates that the global utilities register set
+      contains a functioning "reset control register" (i.e. the board
+      is wired to reset upon setting the HRESET_REQ bit in this register).
+
+    Example:
+
+        global-utilities@e0000 {        /* global utilities block */
+                compatible = "fsl,mpc8548-guts";
