Subject: [PATCH] VT-d: prevent watchdog timer from kicking in when initializing on systems with huge amounts of memory
Date: Mon, 10 May 2010 09:46:21 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BE7E3FD0200007800002043@vpn.id2.novell.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1535 bytes --]

Process pending soft-IRQs every 4G worth of pages initialized for Dom0
to keep timekeeping happy and prevent the NMI watchdog (when enabled)
from kicking in.
