I was expecting Marek Behún to follow up and take this as he's the one
that volunteered to take over one of the powerpc custodian trees and
push this through.  I've replied now with more feedback.

Yes, the feedback was to change things so that the behavior is the
default, since it looks like what we're doing now is wrong. And you have
access to a few platforms to test things on to see if it breaks other
platforms, and then putting it in to -next or early in the merge cycle
on master would shake out any other problems with the approach. So if
you're still interested in that platform, please make it a generic
change or report back where it does fail so we can see what's going on
elsewhere. Making the init_sequence_f table even more difficult to read
is something we do want to avoid.
