Subject: [PATCH 69/74] x86/Sandy Bridge: reserve pages when integrated graphics is present

3.5.7.4 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@...tuousgeek.org>

commit a9acc5365dbda29f7be2884efb63771dc24bd815 upstream.

SNB graphics devices have a bug that prevent them from accessing certain
memory ranges, namely anything below 1M and in the pages listed in the
table.  So reserve those at boot if set detect a SNB gfx device on the
CPU to avoid GPU hangs.

Stephane Marchesin had a similar patch to the page allocator awhile
back, but rather than reserving pages up front, it leaked them at
allocation time.

[ hpa: made a number of stylistic changes, marked arrays as static
  const, and made less verbose; use "memblock=debug" for full
  verbosity. ]
