I agree this is an acpi_handling problem where the wrong device is
attached.  I am pursuing ACPI folks today. 

I have my patch in place to work around the problem and am looking into
the the memory driver. 

In acpi_memory_enable_device 

in  list_for_each_entry(info, &mem_device->res_list, list) {

if 
printk ("node: %d , start %08lx, end %08lx \n",node,info-
>start_addr,info->start_addr+info->length);
before doing the add memory I see

node: -1 , start 1f0000000, end 270000000
On node -1 totalpages: 0
node: -1 , start 170000000, end 1f0000000

Finding the 2 ranges (these are the right ranges and the right chunks)
is great but acpi_get_node is not working for my handle. 

I am continuing to debug. 


Thanks,  
  Keith
