This reverts commitd7bd554f27. It turns out that Tegra20 has a bug in the implementation of the MSI target address register (which is worked around by the existence of the struct tegra_pcie_soc.msi_base_shift parameter) that restricts the MSI target memory to the lower 32 bits of physical memory on that particular generation. The offending patch causes a regression on TrimSlice, which is a Tegra20-based device and has a PCI network interface card. An initial, simpler fix was to change the MSI target address for Tegra20 only, but it was pointed out that the offending commit also prevents the use of 32-bit only MSI capable devices, even on later chips. Technically this was never guaranteed to work with the prior code in the first place because the allocated page could have resided beyond the 4 GiB boundary, but it is still possible that this could've introduced a regression. The proper fix that was settled on is to select a fixed address within the lowest 32 bits of physical address space that is otherwise unused, but testing of that patch has provided mixed results that are not fully understood yet. Given all of the above and the relative urgency to get this fixed in v4.13, revert the offending commit until a universal fix is found.

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.
