On non-BIOS platforms it is possible that the BIOS data area contains garbage instead of being zeroed or something equivalent (firmware people: we are talking of 1.5K here, so please do the sane thing.) We need on the order of 20-30K of low memory in order to boot, which may grow up to < 64K in the future. We probably want to avoid the lowest of the low memory. At the same time, it seems extremely unlikely that a legitimate EBDA would ever reach down to the 128K (which would require it to be over half a megabyte in size.) Thus, pick 128K as the cutoff for "this is insane, ignore." We may still end up reserving a bunch of extra memory on the low megabyte, but that is not really a major issue these days. In the worst case we lose 512K of RAM. This code really should be merged with trim_bios_range() in arch/x86/kernel/setup.c, but that is a bigger patch for a later merge window.

/*
|
|
* The BIOS places the EBDA/XBDA at the top of conventional
|
|
* memory, and usually decreases the reported amount of
|
|
* conventional memory (int 0x12) too. This also contains a
|
|
* workaround for Dell systems that neglect to reserve EBDA.
|
|
* The same workaround also avoids a problem with the AMD768MPX
|
|
* chipset: reserve a page before VGA to prevent PCI prefetch
|
|
* into it (errata #56). Usually the page is reserved anyways,
|
|
* unless you have no PS/2 mouse plugged in.
|
|
*
|
|
* This functions is deliberately very conservative. Losing
|
|
* memory in the bottom megabyte is rarely a problem, as long
|
|
* as we have enough memory to install the trampoline. Using
|
|
* memory that is in use by the BIOS or by some DMA device
|
|
* the BIOS didn't shut down *is* a big problem.
