 Hello Dave,
 
 I attach patches which are updating powerpc based on linux-2.6.27.
 Please review them.
 
 Following updates have been done but some of them could not test yet
 because of constraints in environment.
 (Non-SMP powerpc virtual machine of qemu can only use)
 
 - Get rid of __func__. symbols (patch 0001)
  This patch can delete such symbols from command output like
 
 crash> sym -l | grep __func__ -m 3
 c03604ac (r) __func__.21434
 c0360500 (r) __func__.21333
 c0360508 (r) __func__.21309
 
 - Minor updates (patch 0002/0003/0004)
   ppc_processor_speed() support "ibm,extended-clock-frequency" [Not tested]
   ppc_get_smp_cpus() can return correct cpu numbers on SMP [Not tested]
   "bt", "mach" can handle (tt->flags & IRQSTACKS) [Not
tested]
 
 - Enhancement of "bt" (patch 0005/0006/0007/0008)
   Detect exeption frame of linux-2.6 style ("bt" can dispaly '+' parts
of below)
   Some functions are cleanuped with ppc64's.
 * Link Register of nested exception frame could not be tested.
   This may require the exception in kernel mode like oops but
   can not try kernel dump for a while...

 Still remaining the parts of PPC update and I have to setup more useful environment
 for the tests as soon as possible.
 
 Thanks,
 Toshi.
