          x86: reserve dma32 early for gart
      
      The patch has a dependency on bootmem modifications which are not .25
      material that late in the -rc cycle. The problem which is addressed by
      the patch is limited to machines with 256G and more memory booted with
      NUMA disabled. This is not a .25 regression and the audience which is
      affected by this problem is very limited, so it's safer to do the
      revert than pulling in intrusive bootmem changes right now.

      [SPARC64]: Remove most limitations to kernel image size. · 64658743
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Currently kernel images are limited to 8MB in size, and this causes
      problems especially when enabling features that take up a lot of
      kernel image space such as lockdep.
      
      The code now will align the kernel image size up to 4MB and map that
      many locked TLB entries.  So, the only practical limitation is the
      number of available locked TLB entries which is 16 on Cheetah and 64
      on pre-Cheetah sparc64 cpus.  Niagara cpus don't actually have hw
      locked TLB entry support.  Rather, the hypervisor transparently
      provides support for "locked" TLB entries since it runs with physical
      addressing and does the initial TLB miss processing.
      
      Fully utilizing this change requires some help from SILO, a patch for
      which will be submitted to the maintainer.  Essentially, SILO will
      only currently map up to 8MB for the kernel image and that needs to be
      increased.
      
      Note that neither this patch nor the SILO bits will help with network
      booting.  The openfirmware code will only map up to a certain amount
      of kernel image during a network boot and there isn't much we can to
      about that other than to implemented a layered network booting
      facility.  Solaris has this, and calls it "wanboot" and we may
      implement something similar at some point.

      we have seen a little problem in rebooting Dell Optiplex 745 with the
      0KW626 board. Here is a small patch enabling reboot with this board,
      which forces the default reboot path it into the BIOS reboot mode.

      x86: hpet clock enable quirk on nVidia nForce 430 · 96bcf458
      Zbigniew Luszpinski 提交于
      this patch allows hpet=force on nVidia nForce 430 southbridge.
      This patch was tested by me on my old Asus A8N-VM CSM (where bios does not
      support hpet and does not advertise it via acpi entry). My nForce430 version:
      lspci -nn | grep LPC
      00:0a.0 ISA bridge [0601]: nVidia Corporation MCP51 LPC Bridge [10de:0260]
      (rev a2)
      
      Kernel 2.6.24.3 after patching and using hpet=force reports this:
      dmesg | grep -i hpet

      almost near 4G..., and vmemmap_alloc_block will use up the ram under 4G.
      
      solution will be:
      1. make memmap allocation get memory above 4G...
      2. reserve some dma32 range early before we try to set up memmap for all.
      and release that before pci_iommu_alloc, so gart or swiotlb could get some
      range under 4g limit for sure.
      
      the patch is using method 2.

      x86: add the DFF (Desktop Form Factor) Dell Optiplex 745 to the reboot errata list · fc115bf1
      Coleman Kane 提交于
      We recently got some of the "Desktop Form Factor" Optiplex 745's in.  I
      noticed that there's an entry for the SFF one's, but the BIOS model number
      of the DFF differs from that of the SFF.  We have been reliably
      experiencing the same (as far as I can tell) reboot bug as the SFF boxes.
