    [PATCH] ia64: put kernel into virtually mapped area · 187dc563
    Tony Luck authored
    This patch moves the kernel text and data into region 5 (0xa00...) by using
    a translation register to pin the entire area (i.e., no TLB faults).
    The 1st-order goal is to be able to boot a kernel even when there is
    no usable memory in the 64-128MB range.  It is also a step towards enabling
    text-replication on NUMA.
