I don't see anything really obvious in that range. However, I notice that pci_mmap_resource() (in drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c) now has + if (i >= PCI_ROM_RESOURCE) + return -ENODEV; which seems a big bogus. Why wouldn't we allow the ROM resource to be mapped? I could imagine that the X server would very much like to mmap it, although I don't know if modern X actually does that. The fact that it works when root runs the X server and causes problems for normal users does seem like there's something that root can do that users can't do, and doing a mmap() on /dev/mem might be just that. Eike, maybe you could change the ">=" to just ">" instead? PS. The patch that introduced this was billed as "no change for anything but ppc". Tssk.
