It breaks (crash) on the wallstreet's internal modem. The reason is that
this machines has two SCCs (4 channels) but the device tree only declares
channel A on the second SCC (so we have only 3 channels visible). This
breaks the channel cross-references you use to access channel B's
registers. I'll try to make a simple fix if I find some time today and I
think I'll just rewrite the probe code by the end of the week or next
week end since it's too much dependent on the device tree layout.
BTW. Paul: The patches on my test page (url below + .../test.html)
include among other things support for the PowerBooks 3400/3500
ethernet/modem combo interrupt. It looks like there is a second ohare
chip with cascaded interrupt controller either in the combo itself or on
the motherboard (or a chip that mimmics the ohare chip). It's not
referenced by name in the device tree but by vendorid/deviceid. I'm
wondering if it might contains also an SCC cell for the modem but I can't
test, I don't have access to one of those machines. I think you have a
3400, don't you ? I'll make sure my new probe code can easily be used to
declare SCC cells for this kind of cases (but just passing the addresses
in) just in case...
