Do you (someone) have (maintain) a list of affected systems, including motherboard type and possibly version, BIOS version and CPU type? A similar list of unaffected systems with 4GB+ RAM could be useful, too.
I'm afraid with default iommu=soft it will be a mystery forever. -- Krzysztof Halasa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
