X-Git-Tag: v2.6.21-rc1~92^2~44^2~33 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6f284a2ce7b8bc49cb8455b1763357897a899abb;p=pandora-kernel.git [MIPS] FLATMEM: introduce PHYS_OFFSET. The old code was assuming that min_low_pfn was always 0. This means that platforms having a big hole at their memory start paid the price of wasting some memory for the allocation of unused entries in mem_map[]. This patch prevents this waste. It introduces PHYS_OFFSET define which is the start of the physical memory and uses it wherever needed. Specially when converting physical/virtual addresses into virtual/physical ones. Currently all platforms defines PHYS_OFFSET to 0. Signed-off-by: Franck Bui-Huu Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
