[PATCH] Fix DMA access of block device in 64-bit kernel on some non-x86systems with 4GB or upper 4GB memory

From: yshi
Date: Tue Mar 04 2008 - 04:34:29 EST


For some non-x86 systems with 4GB or upper 4GB memory,
we need increase the range of addresses that can be
used for direct DMA in 64-bit kernel.
