little nit: The patch doesn't quite have the right form.

Patches to the kernel are expected to apply with -p1, so
for example, the patch line contains:

arch/powerpc/boot/ops.h

It should be

something/arch/powerpc/boot/ops.h

I've fixed it up manually so no need to re-submit, but you'll know next
time :-)

Cheers,
Ben.
