Hi Bjorn,

This is actually breaking 64 bit systems passing fw_args in XKPHYS or KSEG0.

Maybe something like:

static inline bool valid_fw_arg(unsigned long arg)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_64BIT
	if (arg >= XKPHYS && arg < XKSEG)
		return TRUE;
#endif
	return arg >= CKSEG0 && arg < CKSSEG;
}

Will be more robust.

Thanks
