[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx>

commit 0b6d24c01932db99fc95304235e751e7f7625c41 upstream.

Apparently stuff works that way on those machines.

I agree with Chris' concern that this is a bit risky but imo worth a

resources allocated like that by the BIOS, so I suspect that it's all
ok.

This regression goes back to
