Thank you! I tried the commit 240d7ecd7f6fa62e074e8a835e620047954f0b28 
(powerpc/dma: use the dma-direct allocator for coherent platforms) again.

git clone git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git -b powerpc-dma.6 a

git checkout 240d7ecd7f6fa62e074e8a835e620047954f0b28

I modified the 'dma.c' patch because of the undefined references to 
'__dma_nommu_free_coherent' and '__dma_nommu_alloc_coherent':

The X1000 boots and the PASEMI onboard ethernet works! X5000 (P5020 
board): U-Boot loads the kernel and the dtb file. Then the kernel starts 
but it doesn't find any hard disks (partitions).
