From e5adb8770e12169a6595a3ad5682541441bd1052 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ralf Baechle Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2005 22:55:26 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Hack to resolve longstanding prefetch issue Prefetching may be fatal on some systems if we're prefetching beyond the end of memory on some systems. It's also a seriously bad idea on non dma-coherent systems.
