pci/dmar: Tone down warnings about invalid BIOS DMAR tables
On Sun, 21 Mar 2010, Ben Hutchings wrote: Are you saying that these bogus tables are found on boards that do have VT-d hardware? I was working on the assumption that these tables result from the OEM building a BIOS with VT-d support for a board where the hardware is not present. Yes. Most of these boa... 21 Mar 2010 12:43

irq: Start the transition of irq_chip methods taking a desc
Eric, On Sun, 21 Mar 2010, Eric W. Biederman wrote: With SPARSE_IRQ irq_to_desc becomes an unnecessary lookup operation on the fast path of dispatching irqs to their handlers. We can avoid this cost by passing an irq_desc pointer instead of using an integer irq token to the irq_chip methods. ... 21 Mar 2010 11:35

[PATCH 4/4] pci/dmar: Tone down warnings about invalid BIOS DMAR tables
We now know how to deal with these tables so that they are harmless. Use the TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND flag and don't say the BIOS is 'broken' as this makes users think of hardware damage.
