[PATCH] x86: reuse the boot-time mappings of fixed_addresses

From: Xiao Guangrong
Date: Sat Aug 22 2009 - 22:31:34 EST


From: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Some fixed_addresses items are only used when system boot, after
boot, they are free but no way to use, like early ioremap area.
They are wasted for us, we can reuse them after system boot.

In this patch, we put them in permanent kmap's area and expand
vmalloc's address range. In boot time, reserve them in
permanent_kmaps_init() to avoid multiple used, after system boot,
we unreserved them then user can use it.
