[PATCH 1/7] I/OAT: add verification for proper APICID_TAG_MAP settingby BIOS

From: Maciej Sosnowski
Date: Thu Feb 26 2009 - 05:13:24 EST


BIOS versions for systems with I/OAT ver.2 have been found
which fail to program APICID_TAG_MAP for DCA.
The ioatdma driver should recognize incorrectly set APICID_TAG_MAP
and disable DCA in that case.
