Hi Joakim,
First of all, thanks your care!
Well, I dont think the above issue is exactly what we're hitting because
DAR is correctly updated on our case with "dcbst".
The problem is that it is treated as a write operation, but shouldnt.
Maybe it is related to dcbst's inability to set DAR?
BTW, about the CPU15 bug fix, has there been any effort to port/merge
it in v2.6 ?
