[ 8425.915139] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc20001a0a000
[ 8425.919087] IP: [<ffffffff8021dacc>] clflush_cache_range+0xc/0x25

This is on a Intel machine with 36bit physical address space. The PTE
entry references 47000ee000, which is outside of it.
Add a check for the physical address space and warn/printk about the
stupid caller.

We have .bss.page_aligned and it seems appropriate to use it.

fix the 3D performance drop reported at:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10328
fb drivers are using ioremap()/ioremap_nocache(), followed by mtrr_add with
WC attribute. Recent changes in page attribute code made both
ioremap()/ioremap_nocache() mappings as UC (instead of previous UC-). This
breaks the graphics performance, as the effective memory type is UC instead
of expected WC.
The correct way to fix this is to add ioremap_wc() (which uses UC- in the
absence of PAT kernel support and WC with PAT) and change all the
fb drivers to use this new ioremap_wc() API.
We can take this correct and longer route for post 2.6.25. For now,
revert back to the UC- behavior for ioremap/ioremap_nocache.

It appears that 64-bit PCI resources cannot possibly ever have worked on
x86-32 even when the RESOURCES_64BIT config option was set, because any
driver that tried to [pci_]ioremap() the resource would have been unable
to do so because the high 32 bits would have been silently dropped on
the floor by the ioremap() routines that only used "unsigned long".
Change them to use "resource_size_t" instead, which properly encodes the
whole 64-bit resource data if RESOURCES_64BIT is enabled.

page_is_ram() has a special case for the 640k-1M bios area, however
due to a thinko the special case checks the e820 table entry and
not the memory the user has asked for. This patch fixes the bug.

fixes are too intrusive for v2.6.25. ]

This patch teaches page_is_ram() about the fact that the first
4Kb of memory are special on x86, even though the E820 table
normally doesn't exclude it.
This fixes the WARN_ON() reported by Laurent Riffard who was also
very helpful in diagnosing the issue.

Several AGP drivers right now use ioremap_nocache() on kernel ram in order
to turn a page of regular memory uncached.
There are two problems with this:
1) This is a total nightmare for the ioremap() implementation to keep
various mappings of the same page coherent.
2) It's a total nightmare for the AGP code since it adds a ton of
complexity in terms of keeping track of 2 different pointers to
the same thing, in terms of error handling etc etc.
This patch fixes this by making the AGP drivers use the new
set_memory_XX APIs instead.
Note: amd-k7-agp.c is built on Alpha too, and generic.c is built
on ia64 as well, which do not yet have the set_memory_*() APIs,
so for them some we have a few ugly #ifdefs - hopefully they'll
be fixed soon.

At the early stages of boot, before the kernel pagetable has been
fully initialized, a Xen kernel will still be running off the
Xen-provided pagetables rather than swapper_pg_dir[]. Therefore,
readback cr3 to determine the base of the pagetable rather than
assuming swapper_pg_dir[].

Specifically the boot time page tables in a CONFIG_X86_PAE=y enabled
kernel are in PAE format.
early_ioremap is updated to use the standard page table accessors.
Clear any mappings beyond max_low_pfn from the boot page tables in
native_pagetable_setup_start because the initial mappings can extend
beyond the range of physical memory and into the vmalloc area.

When an ioremap is unmapped, do not change the page attributes. There might

mapping attribute for no good reason. The mapping is removed anyway.

x86: fix ioremap RAM check
this check was too strict and caused an ioremap() failure.
the problem is due to the somewhat unclean way of how the GART code
reserves a memory range for its aperture, and how it utilizes it
later on.
Allow RAM pages to be ioremap()-ed too, as long as they are reserved.
