While upgrading the kernel on a S3C2412 based board I've noted that it was

I've tracked down the problem to the EBI virtual memory mapping that is in
conflict with the IO mapping definition in arch/arm/mach-s3c24xx/s3c2412.c.

Yeah, as you said, the mapping for SSMC invade EBI area but I think, just SZ_4K is enough for SSMC. So following is better in this case. How do you think? And there is no problem on your board?

It does not work! I tried also a 64K length and also did not work. With your patch my console (with earlyprintk set) only displays the following:

My guess is that the MMU initialization on the S3C2412 chip only allows a minimum of 1MB for the page size.
