As far as I can tell, it's fixed in an as-yet unreleased version of
hw-detect:

    - mac-io bus detection improvements:
      + Detect mesh SCSI controller (closes: #269655, #271419).
      + Detect mace Ethernet controller.
      + Detect mac53c94 SCSI controller.
      + Detect therm_adt746x and therm_windtunnel fan controllers, although
        only post-reboot for now since those modules aren't in
        linux-kernel-di-powerpc-*.
      + Cope with /proc/device-tree/aliases/mac-io pointing to a symlink.
