Subject: paravirt: helper to disable all IO space
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d572929cdd12a60732c3522f7cf011bfa29165cf;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

paravirt: helper to disable all IO space

In a virtual environment, device drivers such as legacy IDE will waste
quite a lot of time probing for their devices which will never appear.
This helper function allows a paravirt implementation to lay claim to
the whole iomem and ioport space, thereby disabling all device drivers
trying to claim IO resources.
