Subject: [PATCH] x86: make init_memory_mapping could handle small range
Date: Mon, 02 Mar 2009 23:36:13 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49ACDDED.1060508@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1236062253.6204.278.camel@yhuang-dev.sh.intel.com>


Impact: fix small range ...

Ying Huang found init_memory_mapping has problem for small range less than 2M
when he tried to direct map for EFI runtime code out of max_low_pfn_mapped

it turns out we never consider that will be usedd for small range. and didn't
check the range...
