Hi! Sorry for my delayed response. As best I can tell, it does indeed
Just Work, but I have only been able to test on wiiu which is missing a
lot of features other boards have (like PCI) - so it's possible there's
still an assumption elsewhere in the kernel that I haven't hit.

As best I can tell, the Wii and Wii U are the only 32-bit powerpc boards
out there where it's even possible to have non-contiguous memory.
