2.4.6 + MediaGX = kernel panic

2.4.6 + MediaGX = kernel panic

[Eugene Crosser]

I have Casio Fiva 102 which is a mini notebook based on Cyrix MediaGX
(clone) chipset.  2.4.5 runs like a charm, but 2.4.6, immediately
after starting, displays this:

zone(0): 4096 pages.
zone(1): 11648 pages.
zone(2): 0 pages.
Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=linux ro root=304 sb=0x220,5,1,5

Working around Cyrix MediaGX virtual DMA bugs
Console: colour VGA+ 80x25

== The rest of the output is passed through ksymoops:

Tell me if I can provide more information
