If you think so - I found it logical to fix the found on the way and
not to let too much bit-rot ...

If I have to work with one of those boards in the future I want to
track the real problems I might encounter - and not to fix 20 obvious
compile issues first ...

To get the file compile - otherwise you get:

arch/ppc/platforms/pplus.c: In function `pplus_setup_arch':
arch/ppc/platforms/pplus.c:569: `initrd_start' undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/ppc/platforms/pplus.c:569: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
arch/ppc/platforms/pplus.c:569: for each function it appears in.)

and since I do not have all the kernel kernel in my memory and the
other files include initrd.h I thought it is the most logical thing to try ...

# grep initrd * | grep include
adir_setup.c:#include <linux/initrd.h>
apus_setup.c:#include <linux/initrd.h>
chrp_setup.c:#include <linux/initrd.h>
