wii: use both mem1 and mem2 as ram
The Nintendo Wii video game console has two discontiguous RAM regions: - MEM1: 24MB @ 0x00000000 - MEM2: 64MB @ 0x10000000 Unfortunately, the kernel currently does not support discontiguous RAM memory regions on 32-bit PowerPC platforms. This patch adds a series of workarounds to allow the use of the second memory region (MEM2) as RAM by the kernel. Basically, a single range of memory from the beginning of MEM1 to the end of MEM2 is reported to the kernel, and a memory reservation is created for the hole between MEM1 and MEM2. With this patch the system is able to use all the available RAM and not just ~27% of it. This will no longer be needed when proper discontig memory support for 32-bit PowerPC is added to the kernel.
