[PATCH] x86/Sandy Bridge: reserve pages when integrated graphics is present

From: Jesse Barnes
Date: Wed Nov 14 2012 - 15:44:25 EST


SNB graphics devices have a bug that prevent them from accessing certain
memory ranges, namely anything below 1M and in the pages listed in the
table. So reserve those at boot if set detect a SNB gfx device on the
CPU to avoid GPU hangs.

Stephane Marchesin had a similar patch to the page allocator awhile
back, but rather than reserving pages up front, it leaked them at
allocation time.
