While the kernel may not (directly) need to access it for other purposes, what about AML accessing it? As you can't advertise the movement to ACPI, and as non-RAM mappings are carried out by drivers/acpi/osl.c:acpi_map() using acpi_os_ioremap(), phys-to-machine translations won't cover for that (unless I'm overlooking something, which unfortunately seems like I might be). Even without that I wonder in how far tools (kexec?) may be misguided by relocating non-RAM memory ranges. Even more so when stuff traditionally living below the 4G boundary suddenly moves far beyond that. Jan
