Subject: [PATCH v2] x86/mm: Re-use the early_ioremap fixed area
Date: Wed, 29 Oct 2014 19:38:37 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1414582717-32729-1-git-send-email-mnfhuang@gmail.com> (raw)

The temp fixed area is only used during boot for early_ioremap(), and
it is unused when the ioremap() is functional. vmalloc/pkmap area become
available after early boot so the temp fixed area is available for re-use.

The virtual address is more precious on i386, especially turning on the
high memory. So we can re-use the virtual address whichever we can.

The macros of FIXADDR_BOOT_START and FIXADDR_BOOT_SIZE donot use any
more.
