Subject: x86: work around MTRR mask setting, v2
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc5~50^2
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9754a5b840a209bc1f192d59f63e81b698a55ac8;p=linux-2.6

x86: work around MTRR mask setting, v2

improve the debug printout:

- make it actually display something
- print it only once

would be nice to have a WARN_ONCE() facility, to feed such things to
kerneloops.org.
