    x86/pci: remove rounding quirk from e820_setup_gap() · 5d423ccd
    Yinghai Lu authored
    Now that the e820 code explicitly reserves 'potentially dangerous'
    free physical memory address space to protect ACPI stolen RAM,
    there's no need for the rounding quirk in the PCI allocator anymore.
    
    Also, this quirk was open-ended iteration that could end up reserving
    a lot of free space and potentially breaking drivers - such as the one
    reported by Yannick Roehlly <yannick.roehlly@free.fr> where there's
    a PCI device with a large memory resource.
    
    So remove it.
