Thanks for this - I gave it a quick run with my patch and I see that there are still 
quite a few failures for qemu-system-ppc, so certainly there are other devices that 
will need attention in future.

I've just realised that I didn't explicitly mark the patch as for-5.2 so I'll resend 
it along with your R-B tag.


ATB,

Mark.
