If you look at the git logs, you'll notice there's some progress towards this. It's already the case for the narrow boards. I have a patch to rip it all out for the wide boards, but there's clearly a bug because it crashes my parisc machine. Works fine on x86 though. I can't work on it this week because I'm travelling and the parisc machine with remote power died on me last week.
I think I already suggested a temporary CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS dependency to akpm last week.
