Powerpc has a way to determine the address of the per cpu area of the

Dear all
A lot of google searches reflect that, the latest kernel supporting
Huawei EC321 CDMA PCCARD is 2.6.17. My version (2.6.22-14 on Ubuntu)
doesn't work.
I am not sure if I should file a bug somewhere or how to contact the
right person. I see another version of this card (Huawei E220) was

I believe that such a change is in Greg KH's tree. So -mm (with both

Yes 2.6.24-rc6-mm1 works, but plain git-x86 does not:

It's possible that the values used in and returned from jiffies_to_usecs() are
incorrect because of truncation when variables of type u64 are involved. So a
function specific to that type is used instead.
