The same question. Is it ok to discard the
[LOONGSON_PCI_MEM_END+1:LOONGSON_HIGHMEM_START-LOONGSON_PCI_MEM_END-1] region
removal operation?
Hi all,

I can confirm this reservation can be removed.
It was used to ensure HIGHMEM won't overlap PCI MMIO region when
firmware was unreliable.
But I do think we shouldn't care this case as an unreliable firmware shouldn't
ship with any devices for end users.

Also it won't affect display of /proc/iomem, now we're on age of DeviceTree :-)

Thanks.
