Mike: should we perhaps revert the first patch too (commit bde9cfa3afe4: "x86/setup: don't remove E820_TYPE_RAM for pfn 0")?
Unfortunately, I was too optimistic and didn't take into account that this commit changes the way /dev/mem sees the first page of memory.
There were reports of slackware users about issues with lilo after upgrade from 5.10.11 to 5.10.12
Ok, applied to mainline.
Greg & stable people - this is now commit 5c279c4cf206 ("Revert "x86/setup: don't remove E820_TYPE_RAM for pfn 0"") in my tree. Although maybe you just want to revert the commit in stable, rather than take it from upstream? Same difference.
Taking it from upstream makes it easier to track over time what happend. I've queued it up now, thanks!
