[PATCH -v2] ibft: Fix finding IBFT ACPI table on UEFI

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Thu Dec 08 2011 - 11:54:03 EST



Found one system with UEFI/iBFT, Kernel does not detect the iBFT during
iscsi_ibft module loading.

the root cause: for x86, We have calling of find_ibft_region() much early.
in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled.

Try to call find_ibft_region() second time in ibft_init().

At that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap.
So isa_virt_to_bus will get wrong phys from right virt address.
We could just skip that phys address printing.

For legacy one, print the found address early.

-v2: update comments and description according to Konrad.
