Greg,

Have you given Grant's suggestion any further consideration?

I'd like to know how the MMCONFIG issues discussed in this thread are going
to be handled upstream. I have a patch implemented in RHEL 5.2, but I would
rather have the upstream patch implemented, whatever it is.

But so far, we have a zillion patches floating around, claiming

I complain about Arjan's patch. For reasons which have been adequately
gone into already in this thread.

Agreed.
Greg, I think at least two better alternatives were proposed already.
Please review the thread again.
