Hello Experts,

I have a requirement to change __log_buf memory(kernel printk buffer)
as non cacheable memory.
How can I change the page attributes for changing cache policy to non cacheable?
I just can give short clue. I think somehow you must find its PTE
entry...there, IIRC there is page attribute that can be changed to
make it uncacheable.

cross check the Intel processor manual for further clarification (if
it's indeed x86 arch)
