Subject: [PATCH] ARM: zynq: Reserve not DMAable space in front of the kernel
Date: Fri, 31 Jan 2014 13:08:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <780bb8c8fd752eeace2fd2fbe1d8ed8572dc0d76.1391170073.git.michal.simek@xilinx.com> (raw)

Reserve space from 0x0 - __pa(swapper_pg_dir),
if kernel is loaded from 0, which is not DMAable.
It is causing problem with MMC driver and others
which want to add dma buffers to this space.

Signed-off-by: Michal Simek <michal.simek@xilinx.com>

Jason: I don't think it is worth to bring 0x8000 magic
value and count minimum from it and phys_addr of swapper_pg_dir.
Full 512k of memory shouldn't be used by DMA.
