Subject: [PATCH] [1/1] RFC: Fix some EFI problems v2
Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2008 21:30:57 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080212930.359942483@suse.de> (raw)


>From code review the EFI memory map handling has a couple of problems:

- The test for _WB memory was reversed so it would set cache able memory
to uncached
- It would always set a wrong uninitialized zero address to uncached
(so I suspect it always set the first few pages in phys memory to uncached,
that is why it may have gone unnoticed) 
- It would call set_memory_x() on a fixmap address that it doesn't
handle correctly.
- Some other problems I commented in the code (but was unable to solve
for now) 

I changed the ioremaps to set the correct caching attributes
and also corrected the ordering so it looks roughly correct now.

This is an RFC, because I don't have a EFI system to test.

v2: Really fix the use before initialization problem. Thanks Thomas!
    Fix compiler warning
    Add one pair of brackets.
