[Linux-ia64] register initialization error on test9 ?

[Hiro Fujita <fujita@kanagawa.hitachi.co.jp>]

Hi,

there seems to be a register initialization error on test9 kernel.

----------------
In the original code, RR[0] is initialized instead of RR[6].
I don't know whether the RID value should be 8 or 6,
but it is later re-initialized to 6 in ia64_rid_init().

And, this initialization should be done for all application 
processors (APs) even if CONFIG_IA64_EARLY_PRINTK is not defined, 
because RR[6] is used for translation when printk() is called by AP.

When AP calls printk(), writes to VGA region (0xc0000000000bxxxx) is
occured because console_drivers is already initialized by BSP.

Is this right ?
I don't know the detail of address translation.
