This patch does not fix the problem, during boot the kernel still
panics. I had a closer look at the commit and the following patch
fixes it for me....

diff --git a/arch/powerpc/sysdev/fsl_pci.c b/arch/powerpc/sysdev/fsl_pci.c
index 028ac1f..21b687f 100644
--- a/arch/powerpc/sysdev/fsl_pci.c

} else {
- fsl_setup_indirect_pci(hose, rsrc_cfg.start,
+ setup_indirect_pci(hose, rsrc_cfg.start,
rsrc_cfg.start + 4, 0);
}

The only difference here is that you're not setting hose->ops to fsl_indirect_pci_ops. Do you know why that is helping, and what hose->ops is set to instead?
