Additional to Wolfgang's comments:

- Your mailer has wrapped the commit text above. Please you shorter
  lines next time
- The subject line is still way too long. Please try to find a short
  one line subject for the patch like:
  "[PATCH] ppc4xx: Fix Sequoia EBC configuration for new board revision"

Thanks.

Best regards,
Stefan
