[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Check that MCFG points to an e820 reserved area
This patch introduces a user for the e820_all_mapped function:
There have been several machines that don't have a working MMCONFIG,
often because of a buggy MCFG table in the ACPI bios. This patch adds a
simple sanity check that detects a whole bunch of these cases, and when
it detects it, linux now boots rather than crash-and-burns.
The accuracy of this detection can in principle be improved if there was
a "is this entire range in e820 with THIS attribute", but no such
function exist and the complexity needed for this is not really worth
it; this simple check already catches most cases anyway.
