           Summary: Info: mapping multiple BARs. Your kernel is fine.
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 2.6.28 - 2.6.31
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: ACPICA-Core
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected],
                    [email protected]
        Regression: No


acpi_ex_system_memory_space_handler() is implemented
to round up mapping requests to ACPI_SYSMEM_REGION_WINDOW_SIZE.

However, sometimes this overlaps with other mappings.
At least in one case, this is because doing mappings of this
size crosses a page boundary.

In Linux 2.6.28 a check was added to see if overlapping
mapping requests with different properties are made,
and various AML requests have been triggering Linux
warnings ever since:

The fix for this problem is likely to round up the mapping
request to a page boundary, but to not cross a page boundary.
