Ironically, this patch sat collecting dust for 10 years until recently
when I revived my T4240 system :)
The change is mostly to be "correct" in as much as the code can be
correct when it's a little broken. Does it fix anything? It does. PAMU
gets a little miffed about my liodn tags being up near the 1TiB boundary.
If it makes you feel any better about it, I've added fsl_pamu to the
list of things I'm fixing for this board, for the hell of it. I have a
pex8724 to program to get 2 of the 4 nvme slots up, a DPAA driver to
build to get the RIO up (and likely some tweaking to program the IDT SRIO
switch to work across the fabric).
IOW, I think I can maybe help get rid of your FIXMEs. For reference:
https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1061198/Vvdn-T4mfcs-Scaleout.html
Plus I have a couple P4080 systems for regression testing with a 36-bit
addressing space.
