All,
I want to know which PCI errata is solved by this patch
and if this patch did test on real hardware.
I know this patch turn on the 'M' bit -memory coherency.
But I don't believe this can solved the "PCI read multi-line"
errata.

On the 83xx platform to ensure the PCI inbound memory is handled
properly we
have to turn on coherency for all pages in the MMU. Otherwise we see
corruption if inbound "prefetching/streaming" is enabled on the PCI
controller.
