[PATCH 0/3] ieee1275: find and claim more memory |

I've posted a couple of RFC patches that attempted to claim some more
memory on ieee1275 platforms, which is necessary for the verifiers to
do their work. The RFCs were a bit unsatisfactory and also it turns
out they broke in some corner cases.
This, I believe, is a proper, upstream-worthy solution for getting
more memory on ieee1275 platforms and powerpc-ieee1275 in
particular. It is also, sadly, an set of quite complex solutions, as
the commit messages for patches 2 and 3 show! It seems this is the
cost of broad platform support and backwards compatibility.
There's no reason for this to go into 2.06.
Kind regards,
Daniel
