I just gave this a shot. Needed the attached diff to compile. I tried to
build it without CONFIG_CM_PNP_BIOS defined and had several warnings
related to the /proc/cm/escd stuff. It built fine with everything
defined though.

If I cat the /proc/cm/devices file I get a seg fault. Aside from that
everything seems to be running fine, been up almost an hour now.

I'm curious if anyone knows if there are plans to integrate this into
the main source tree anytime soon? Or expand it to support MCA, Sbus,
etc?

Cheers,
Chris
