[next] powerpc: pseries/dtl.c should include asm/firmware.h

randconfig build on powerpc failed with :


arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dtl.c: In function ‘dtl_init’:
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dtl.c:238: error: implicit declaration of function ‘firmware_has_feature’
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dtl.c:238: error: ‘FW_FEATURE_SPLPAR’ undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dtl.c:238: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dtl.c:238: error: for each function it appears in.)

It's great that you're sending patches to fix these issues but it's not
quite formatted as the maintainers like.

The patch needs to be included inline in the message, rather than as an
attachment.  You can see it as an attachment here:
  http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2009-April/070122.html
.. as opposed to the required inline format like this patch:
  http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2009-April/070120.html

Adding a diffstat would also be nice.

Yeah .. just being lazy. Moving from thunderbird to mutt have been
on my TODO list for a long time. I will use this as a trigger to
move to a different mail client. Thanks Mikey.
