I concur, the two essential things in my patch (2.6 API change and fix for bug 4310) are already picked up in your patch. I could have replied earlier but I thought I would take an hour or two to run with your patch on my board. But that can wait since you guys seem to be in a hurry with a decision on this.

So, Oray's patch has two things in it, it looks like. The basic
re-porting to 2.6 APIs, and support for the EON8260. The EON8260
changes should be a bit cleaner to redo after the patch I sent goes in
as some of the other cleanups will help there. But I'd also like to see
the full EON8260 changes :) The 2.6 API parts look close, but I went
and expanded a good bit more on them.

I'd like to drop Oray's patch for now, and have the EON8260 work be
resubmitted to lkml/linuxppc-embedded@xxxxxxxxxxx
