BTW. I'm doing some cleanup of lmb, you can take a peek at my WIP in git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc.git branch "lmb". It shouldn't break your stuff, though you will probably need to add a call to lmb_set_current_limit() in the right place instead of setting LMB_REAL_LIMIT to lowmem_end_addr. Anyway, it's still WIP, but feel free to comment, and if there's something else you want me to do, cleanup or change in the core LMB, let me know.
