On TX39/TX49, high 16MB in virtual address space (0xff000000-0xffffffff) are reserved and can not be used as normal mapped/cached segment. This patch fixes FIXADDR_TOP for TX39/TX49. FIXADDR_TOP is used not only if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled. It is also used for high limit address for vmalloc. This patch can be applied to both 2.4 and 2.5. I'm not sure whether subtracting 0x2000 is necessary or not but doing it is a safe bet.
