is there a simple hack for Linux 2.0.X that the kernel allocates a
contigous 64k area of memory which then can be mmaped by a user program
which is going to use this as DMA buffer then ?
using a full kernel driver is no option (at least right now for first tests)
and having this 64k locked, contiguous area seems to be enough for now
(it's a PCI card, so there is no need for <16MB addresses).
