Hi Greg,

Would you please consider adding 30e46b574 [v3.12-rc1~157^2] to your
next 3.10.x release?  One of the folks here came across an instance
where a fairly new reference board failed to boot up 3.10.x without
having this commit added.

Full commit log of it follows.

Thanks,
Paul.

    x86: avoid remapping data in parse_setup_data()
    
    Type SETUP_PCI, added by setup_efi_pci(), may advertise a ROM size
    larger than early_memremap() is able to handle, which is currently
    limited to 256kB. If this occurs it leads to a NULL dereference in
    parse_setup_data().
    
    To avoid this, remap the setup_data header and allow parsing functions
    for individual types to handle their own data remapping.
