Subject: [PATCH 3/3] sky2: beter ram buffer partitioning
Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2006 15:53:45 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061204155345.0c276a90@freekitty> (raw)

Different chips have different sizes of ram buffers, and some versions have
no ram buffer at all!.  Be more careful about sizing the ram usage because
it maybe a problem if vendor keeps changing sizes.

There is the (unlikely) possibility that some of the errors on some of the
chips have been caused by partitioning not on a 1K boundary.
