Huang Ying 41139ac3cd ACPI: APEI: Fix BERT resources conflict with ACPI NVS area
It was reported that on some machines, there is overlap between ACPI
NVS area and BERT address range.  This appears reasonable because BERT
contents need to be non-volatile across reboot.  But this will cause
resources conflict in current Linux kernel implementation because the
ACPI NVS area is marked as busy.  The resource conflict is fixed via
excluding the ACPI NVS area when requesting IO resources for BERT.
When accessing the BERT contents, the whole BERT address range will be
ioremapped and accessed.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
