X-Git-Tag: v2.6.32-rc8~35^2~2 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=86cf898e1d0fca245173980e3897580db38569a8;p=pandora-kernel.git intel-iommu: Check for 'DMAR at zero' BIOS error earlier. Chris Wright has some patches which let us fall back to swiotlb nicely if IOMMU initialisation fails. But those are a bit much for 2.6.32. Instead, let's shift the check for the biggest problem, the HP and Acer BIOS bug which reports a DMAR at physical address zero. That one can actually be checked much earlier -- before we even admit to having detected an IOMMU in the first place. So the swiotlb init goes ahead as we want.
