Subject: [PATCH 0 of 2] x86: a couple of misc patches
Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2008 14:36:09 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <patchbomb.1200004569@localhost> (raw)

Hi Ingo,

A couple of patches:

1. Fold _PAGE_GLOBAL back into 64-bit __PAGE_KERNEL*, and remove the
MAKE_GLOBAL hack.  Not sure if it will work, but the iounmap problem
should have been fixed by Jan's patch.

2. I noticed the _PAGE_PCD|_PAGE_PWT combination being used a lot, so
I created _PAGE_NOCACHE to wrap them up.  asm-x86/fb.h uses plain
_PAGE_PCD; should it be _PAGE_NOCACHE too?

Thanks,
	J
