From: Sriram <[email protected]>

OMAP platforms(like OMAP3530) include DSP or other co-processors
for media acceleration. when carving out memory for the
accelerators we can end up creating a hole in the memory map
of sort:
<kernel memory><hole(memory for accelerator)><kernel memory>

To handle such a memory configuration ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL
has to be enabled. For further information refer discussion at:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg15262.html.

pls check the link: I see "The document you were looking for was not found."
