/dev/oldmem provides the interface for us to access the "old memory" in the dump-capture kernel. Unfortunately, no one actually uses this interface. And this interface could actually cause some real problems if used on ia64 where the cached/uncached accesses are mixed. See the discussion from the link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/12/386. So Eric suggested that we should remove /dev/oldmem as an unused piece of code. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: mention /dev/oldmem obsolescence in devices.txt] Suggested-by: "Eric W.
