This is the fourth of seven patches for the rar_register driver
for Sunday, January 17, 2009

The rar stands for restricted access region. The restricted access
region is an area of memory that can be locked from access by the
x86 processor.

The purpose of the restricted access region is to safeguard confidential
information from any unauthorized software running on the x86 processor.

The purpose of this driver is to enable other drivers to obtain
the address ranges of the restricted regions as well as lock them.

This patch is referenced off the linux-next repository as pulled
on Sunday, January 17, 2010
