Good point. pat.txt is correct that the "intended" use of set_memory_xyz() is for RAM since there is no other way to set non-WB attribute for RAM. For reserved memory, one should call ioremap_xyz() to map with the xyz attribute directly. From the functionality POV, set_memory_xyz() works for reserved memory, but such usage is not intended. Should I drop the patch 4/5 until we can track the use of WT for RAM? Thanks, -Toshi -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
