When using the escc with Linux, we need interrupts. So instead of creating
a dummy device, let's just map them to the openpic we have anyways.

This makes Linux on PPC64 with console=ttyPZ0 work.

Obviously, this change needs to be reflected in openbios. Patch for that
follows this one. Please update the binary then.

With these patches and OpenBIOS r646, booting 'install64' on the  
following Debian CDs worked for me:

debian-40r4a-powerpc-netinst.iso
debian-503-powerpc-netinst.iso

By default however you get the following error:

invalid/unsupported opcode: 1e - 12 - 1b (782106e4) 00000000014080e4 1
invalid/unsupported opcode: 00 - 00 - 00 (00000000) 0000000000008734 0

which translates to: qemu-system-ppc64 is using a 32-bit CPU by default.
'-cpu ppc64' (970FX according to OpenBIOS) worked, while '-cpu 970'  
was not recognized by OpenBIOS.

If you change only the CPU to 'ppc64', it will be rejected:
qemu: hardware error: Bus model not supported on OldWorld Mac machine

That's why Alex mentioned '-M mac99' elsewhere, I guess. Can't we  
change the defaults? I believe the G5 was the first 64-bit Mac and is  
considered New World, so Old World shouldn't even be selectable IMO.

`install64 console=ttyPZ0` only gets me to the penguin and appears to  
hang...
`install64` gets me through to the installer screen on Linux/amd64  
host. There are merely some FATALs visible while trying to load  
drivers for therm_* and windfarm_* devices ("No such device").

Nice, interesting!

Yes, I only test whatever I do with -cpu 970fx.

I agree. Please send a patch, CC me and I'll ack it.

Well, on older kernels this was console=ttyS0.

Yesh, ADB shouldn't work either so you don't get input devices :-(.
