- and I've seen a report it causes an OOPS
on 2.5.53. I've not tried it on post-52, but I had a -54 kernel OOPS
Guess the report was mine :) note for readers, this is bug 134
in the 2.5 kernel bug database at http://bugme.osdl.org .

right around that point in bootup (right after IDE and somewhere in PCI init). Haven't chased that one at all...
if it OOPSes without my patch, then it's somebody else's problem.
No, it did oops only with the patch.

In any case, I've attached a new *UNTESTED* patch, that only tries to gratuitously
assign resources of MEM class, and disables the ROM once it does so. No, I don't claim to fully understand this code. And if you're not brave enough or can't test it yourself, I'll be taking the 2.5.56 plunge sometime this weekend. ;) And all you other kernel hackers are welcome to jump right in and tell me what I'm doing wrong.. ;)
-ENOPATCH ;)

My *original* patch (the one that just moved 2 lines) plus the 2-liner by Zwane Mwaikambo to fix the DMA patch is working for me. I know Zwane's patch is already in Bitkeeper, I don't think we've ever resolved the "right" solution for mine....
