Subject: [PATCH] Fix mmap() of /dev/hpet
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.14-rc3~51^2~54
X-Git-Url: https://asedeno.scripts.mit.edu/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=609725f87709724218047a1049913ed233f79d3c;p=linux.git

[PATCH] Fix mmap() of /dev/hpet

The address passed to io_remap_pfn_range() in hpet_mmap() does not need to
be converted using __pa(): it is already a physical address.  This bug was
found and the patch suggested by Clay Harris.

I introduced this particular bug when making io_remap_pfn_range changes a
few months ago.  In fact mmap()ing /dev/hpet has *never* previously worked:
before my changes __pa() was being executed on an ioremap()ed virtual
address, which is also invalid.
