      x86: fix Xorg startup/shutdown slowdown with PAT · 80c5e73d
      Venki Pallipadi 提交于
      Rene Herman reported significant Xorg startup/shutdown slowdown due
      to PAT. It turns out that the memtype list has thousands of entries.
      
      Add cached_entry to list add routine, in order to speed up the
      lookup for sequential reserve_memtype calls.

      x86: fix "kernel won't boot on a Cyrix MediaGXm (Geode)" · c6744955
      Samuel Sieb 提交于
      Cyrix MediaGXm/Cx5530 Unicorn Revision 1.19.3B has stopped
      booting starting at v2.6.22.
      
      The reason is this commit:

      >     x86: Replace NSC/Cyrix specific chipset access macros by inlined functions.
      
      this commit activated a macro which was dormant before due to (buggy)
      macro side-effects.
      
      I've looked through various datasheets and found that the GXm and GXLV
      Geode processors don't have an incrementor.
      
      Remove the incrementor setup entirely.  As the incrementor value
      differs according to clock speed and we would hope that the BIOS
      configures it correctly, it is probably the right solution.
