-Subject: [PATCH 4/4] efi: efi_memmap_insert(): don't split regions with
- invalid sizes.
-
-Some machines, such as the Lenovo ThinkPad W541 with firmware GNET80WW
-(2.28), include memory map entries with phys_addr=0x0 and num_pages=0.
-
-If we're inserting a new memmap and we find a map that is either 0
-pages or all of possible memory (or more!), skip it. When a map exists
-at 0 that's 0 pages, the "end" math here winds up making *every* address
-within the range, and so it'll try to split that entry, and things go
-poorly after that. The same would be true if num_pages were (u64)-1LL
-(all bits set) or (u64)-1LL >> EFI_PAGE_SHIFT (i.e. all bits set as a
-size in bytes, but then shifted to page size to fill the table in).
-
-Don't even try to split those entries, they're nonsense.
