[RESEND] [PATCH] x86: Allow MMCONFIG above 4GB on x86_64

From: John Keller
Date: Tue Jul 15 2008 - 15:47:38 EST


SGI UV will have MMCFG base addresses that are greater than 4GB (32 bits).

Signed-off-by: John Keller <jpk@xxxxxxx>

Resend #2: Create a flag, that is set by platform specific code,
to disable the > 4GB check.

Resend #1: Use CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT instead of CONFIG_X86_64.
