10 * The BIOS places the EBDA/XBDA at the top of conventional
11 * memory, and usually decreases the reported amount of
12 * conventional memory (int 0x12) too. This also contains a
13 * workaround for Dell systems that neglect to reserve EBDA.
14 * The same workaround also avoids a problem with the AMD768MPX
15 * chipset: reserve a page before VGA to prevent PCI prefetch
16 * into it (errata #56). Usually the page is reserved anyways,
17 * unless you have no PS/2 mouse plugged in.
