drm/i915: Resolving the memory region conflict for Stolen area
There is a conflict seen when requesting the kernel to reserve the physical space used for the stolen area. This is because some BIOS are wrapping the stolen area in the root PCI bus, but have an off-by-one error. As a workaround we retry the reservation with an offset of 1 instead of 0. v2: updated commit message & the comment in source file (Daniel) Signed-off-by: Akash Goel <akash.goel@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Tested-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com>
