    Subject[ 20/31] skge: Add DMA mask quirk for Marvell 88E8001 on ASUS P5NSLI motherboard
    Date
    3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------


    From: Graham Gower <graham.gower@gmail.com>

    [ Upstream commit a2af139ff1cd85df586690ff626619ab1ee88b0a ]

    Marvell 88E8001 on an ASUS P5NSLI motherboard is unable to send/receive
    packets on a system with >4gb ram unless a 32bit DMA mask is used.

    This issue has been around for years and a fix was sent 3.5 years ago, but
    there was some debate as to whether it should instead be fixed as a PCI quirk.

    However, 18 months later a similar workaround was introduced for another
    chipset exhibiting the same problem.
