Yes. However, it's pretty clear that the e820 entries are there for a
reason. Probably they are a hack by the BIOS maintainers to keep Windows
from stomping/moving that region, exactly because they want to keep the
bridge where it is (or, it's actually for the BIOS itself - the BIOS
tables are a horrid mess, and BIOS engineers are pretty hacky people:
they'll add random entries to make their own broken algorithms do the
"right thing").

I think we could (and probably should) solve this another way: consider
the ACPI "reserved regions" from the e820 map exactly the same way that we
do other ACPI hints - they should restrict _new_ allocations, but not
impact stuff we figure out on our own.
Basically, right now we assign _unassigned_ resources at "fs_initcall"
time. If we were to add in the e820 "reserved region" stuff before that
(but after we've done PCI discovery), we'd probably do the right thing.
Right now we do the e820 reserved regions very early indeed: we call
"register_memory()" from setup_arch(). We could move at least part of it
(the part that registers the resources) down a bit.
Here's a test-patch. I'm not saying we should absolutely do this, but it
might be interesting to try...

Agreed, looks like an accident. The patch [1] originally came from Kip
Walker (Broadcom back then) between 2.6.0-test3 and 2.6.0-test4. As I
recall it was supposed to fix an issue with with PCI aborts being
signalled by the PCI bridge of the Broadcom BCM1250 family of SOCs when
probing behind pci_scan_bridge. It is undeseriable to disable
PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_MASTER_ABORT in pci_{read,write)_config_* and the
behaviour wasn't considered a bug in need of a workaround, so this was
put in probe.c.
I don't have an affected system at hand, so can't really test but I
propose something like the below patch.

We can let non possible cpus percpu data point to this 'redzone' instead of

NULL was not a good choice because part of [0..32768] memory may be
readable and invalid accesses may happen unnoticed.
If CONFIG_DEBUG_INITDATA is not defined, each non possible cpu points to

wont be detected/crash.

So take it all out and use the core VM's page_cache_readahead(). This means
that ext3 directory reads will use all of readahead's dynamic sizing goop.
Note that we're using the directory's filp->f_ra to hold the readahead state,
