Fair enough - please send a proper patch for this, along with the
ChangeLog entry.  It would also be nice to see the corresponding
patch for the interrupt driven serial driber.

Note: use something like this:
  #if defined(CYGHWR_HAL_POWERPC_860) || defined(CYGHWR_HAL_POWERPC_860T)
    ... your proposed setup
  #else
    .. current setup
  #endif
