We only need to change two defines to enable the pci domains stuff on ppc
(I am running with it enabled so I can use X on an RS6000 F80 where 
the PCI buses all sit above the 4G point).

The problem is last time I looked we dont fall back to the old method so
this would mean a kernel upgrade to a recent 2.2 or 2.4 or X will not work.
