[PATCH] ppc64: remove bogus f50 hack in prom.c
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The code that parses the OF device tree contains an old bogus hack which
was killed a long time ago on ppc32, but survived in ppc64.  It was
supposed to help with a problem on the f50 which is ...  a 32 bits machine
:) Additionally, that hack is causing problems, so let's just get rid of
it.
