All kernel memory which is used for kernel/hardware data transfer must be registered with firmware using "memory regions". 16GB hugepages may not be part of a memory region due to firmware restrictions. This patch modifies the walk_memory_resource callback fn to filter hugepages and add only standard memory to the busmap which is later on used for MR registration. Signed-off-by: Thomas Klein <redacted> --- This reworked patch accounts for comments I got. It's based on davem's net-2.6.git.
