x86: disable the GART early, 64-bit
For K8 system: 4G RAM with memory hole remapping enabled, or more than 4G RAM installed. when try to use kexec second kernel, and the first doesn't include gart_shutdown. the second kernel could have different aper position than the first kernel. and second kernel could use that hole as RAM that is still used by GART set by the first kernel. esp. when try to kexec 2.6.24 with sparse mem enable from previous kernel (from RHEL 5 or SLES 10). the new kernel will use aper by GART (set by first kernel) for vmemmap. and after new kernel setting one new GART. the position will be real RAM. the _mapcount set is lost.

According to Ingo > hm, i'm wondering, instead of modifying the GART, why dont we simply > _detect_ whatever GART settings we have inherited, and propagate that > into our e820 maps? I.e. if there's inconsistency, then punch that out > from the memory maps and just dont use that memory. > > that way it would not matter whether the GART settings came from a [old > or crashing] Linux kernel that has not called gart_iommu_shutdown(), or > whether it's a BIOS that has set up an aperture hole inconsistent with > the memory map it passed. (or the memory map we _think_ i tried to pass > us) > > it would also be more robust to only read and do a memory map quirk > based on that, than actively trying to change the GART so early in the > bootup. Later on we have to re-enable the GART _anyway_ and have to > punch a hole for it. > > and as a bonus, we would have shored up our defenses against crappy > BIOSes as well. add e820 modification for gart inconsistent setting. gart_fix_e820=off could be used to disable e820 fix.
