I'm working on it, but i have some trouble, also with the KA680. For now, there
are 3 things to do:

1) Fix the dz_ibus and dz_vsbus filenames, and get dz_ibus running with the
correct interrupt handling.
2) Maybe problem 2) goes with 1), it's some fixing in interrupt handling.
3) Probing of nonexistent devices makes trouble, i talked about this with
Ragge, he also knows about the problem.

Just a bit :-) Officially about factor 10, but from the feeling, if i see how
it sucks the kernel from the network, it is lots faster than the VS4k/90, which
should be equal speed.

As soon as the swap of the dz_* files is official, the world can try. I did
several basics, and got up to the point of mounting the root fs.
