From ff8a4bae459a9b6455504127fcb78fdbc8e50e4c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2009 12:22:27 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "x86: cap iomem_resource to addressable physical memory" This reverts commit 95ee14e4379c5e19c0897c872350570402014742. Mikael Petterson reported that at least one of his systems will not boot as a result. We have ruled out the detection algorithm malfunctioning, so it is not a matter of producing the incorrect bitmasks; rather, something in the application of them fails. Revert the commit until we can root cause and correct this problem. -stable team: this means the underlying commit should be rejected. Reported-and-isolated-by: Mikael Petterson Signed-off-by: H.
