ppc: 4xx: sysctl table check failed: /kernel/l2cr .1.31 Missing strategy

[Stefan Roese]

I'm seeing this error message when booting an recent arch/ppc kernel on
4xx platforms (tested on Ocotea and other 4xx platforms). Booting NFS
rootfs still works fine, but this message kind of makes me "nervous".
This is not seen on 4xx arch/powerpc platforms. Here the bootlog:

Any ideas?
