Too many things to do :-) I did have the wired page version that I've
been using now and then.
I had the bad thought yesterday that we need to check the
implementation for coherent memory. It appears we set the
pages non-cached, which could cause some trouble. We
have to ensure we never access the same physical page
with different attributes from the 8M mapping and the single
page "coherent" mapping.
I'll try to get some testing done.
Thanks.
