x86: fix page_is_ram() thinko
page_is_ram() has a special case for the 640k-1M bios area, however due to a thinko the special case checks the e820 table entry and not the memory the user has asked for. This patch fixes the bug. [ mingo@elte.hu: this too is better solved in the e820 space, but those fixes are too intrusive for v2.6.25. ] Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
