Subject: [PATCH] xen/arm: Rework the way to compute dom0 DTB base address
Date: Mon, 27 May 2013 14:50:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1369662637-21449-1-git-send-email-julien.grall@linaro.org> (raw)

If the DTB is loading right the after the kernel, on some setup, Linux will
overwrite the DTB during the decompression step.

To be sure the DTB won't be overwritten by the decrompression stage, load
the DTB near the end of the first memory bank and below 4Gib (if memory range is
greater).
