Hello Peter,

I've given this patch (along with the two required patch series) a whirl
on my MPC8349EMDS board. As best I can tell, it works exactly as
expected. I've also reviewed the changes for the 83xx controller, and
they look great.  You've done a great job of minimizing the code
differences between the 83xx and 86xx controllers.

It would definitely make some of my future work easier if this gets
accepted. Feel free to add my reviewed-by and tested-by to your patch.
