Interesting.... try applying it! :-) The bug log message is essentially complaining that pte_special() is not true and the PFN is for an area outside of the physical memory range.

So give it a try and let me know how it goes. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
