    Subject[patch 095/164] x86, setup: Phoenix BIOS fixup is needed on Dell Inspiron Mini 1012
    2.6.33-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Gabor Gombas <gombasg@digikabel.hu>

    commit 3d6e77a3ddb8e4156b89f4273ff8c7d37abaf781 upstream.

    The low-memory corruption checker triggers during suspend/resume, so we
    need to reserve the low 64k. Don't be fooled that the BIOS identifies
    itself as "Dell Inc.", it's still Phoenix BIOS.

    [ hpa: I think we blacklist almost every BIOS in existence. We should
    either change this to a whitelist or just make it unconditional. ]
