Subject: [ia64] ioremap: allow cacheable mmaps of legacy_mem
Message-id: 46B8975B.4070309@redhat.com
O-Subject: [RHEL5.1 PATCH 4/5] ia64: validate and remap mmap requests
Bugzilla: 240006

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
Allow cacheable mmaps of legacy_mem.

[PATCH] ia64: allow WB /sys/.../legacy_mem mmaps

Allow cacheable mmaps of legacy_mem if WB access is supported for the
region. The "legacy_mem" file often contains a shadow option ROM, and
some versions of X depend on this.

Tim Yamin <plasm@roo.me.uk> reported that this change fixes X on a Dell
PowerEdge 3250.
