Looking at the original code again, I agree. It does look wrong. For the
new code, I've run the math by hand for a number of different cases:
83xx, 256MB of RAM, 4K pages (I've tested this on my board too)
85xx, 64GB of RAM, 4K pages
85xx, 64GB of RAM, 64K pages

Let me describe the CS_BNDS register layout for you:
85xx: 0x0XXX0YYY

X's: start address for chip select N: the 12msb's of the 36-bit address
Y's: end address for chip select N: the 12msb's of the 36-bit address

83xx: 0x00XX00YY

X's: start address for chip select N: the 8 msb's of the 32-bit address
Y's: end address for chip select N: the 8 msb's of the 32-bit address

So, on an 83xx with 256MB of RAM in a single bank:
CS_BNDS0 is 0x0000000f. 83xx uses 4K pages, so PAGE_SHIFT = 12

start = 0x0;
end = 0xf;

/* Now the shifts happen */
start == 0x0;
end == 0xffff;

The pfn for the csrow->first_page and csrow->last_page seem correct to
me. The csrow->nr_pages seems correct too: 0x10000 pages * 4K == 256MB.

That's exactly what's happening, the lower bits are all set. That's so
you can get the end address of the memory bank.

Yeah, it does. The HID1 register is a processor model specific register.
It isn't valid on the 83xx. The register exists, but the bits in it have
different meanings. I would have moved this code to the mc_probe()
routine, but I was advised against it.

I don't know much about smp_processor_id(). You'll have to talk with
Kumar/Dave Jiang about the reasons for this code.

Hopefully that helps to clear up some of the concerns about the patch.

Thanks,
Ira
