3.2.54-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 43659222e7a0113912ed02f6b2231550b3e471ac upstream. It's no good setting vga_base after the VGA console has been initialised, because if we do that we get this: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 000b8000 pgd = c0004000 [000b8000] *pgd=07ffc831, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000 0Internal error: Oops: 5017 [#1] ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper Not tainted 3.12.0+ #49 task: c03e2974 ti: c03d8000 task.ti: c03d8000 PC is at vgacon_startup+0x258/0x39c LR is at request_resource+0x10/0x1c pc : [<c01725d0>] lr : [<c0022b50>] psr: 60000053 sp : c03d9f68 ip : 000b8000 fp : c03d9f8c r10: 000055aa r9 : 4401a103 r8 : ffffaa55 r7 : c03e357c r6 : c051b460 r5 : 000000ff r4 : 000c0000 r3 : 000b8000 r2 : c03e0514 r1 : 00000000 r0 : c0304971 Flags: nZCv IRQs on FIQs off Mode SVC_32 ISA ARM Segment kernel which is an access to the 0xb8000 without the PCI offset required to make it work.
