PATCH 5/8
This disables DMA prefetch for the P600 on IPF. A chip bug may result in
a DMA prefetch going falling off into holes in memory. On Proliant x86[_64]
systems the top page of memory is mapped out and the io hole below 4GB is
similiarly protected because the memory at the lower boundary of the hole
is used by ACPI and other things.
Please consider this for inclusion.
Thanks,
mikem
