/*
* Some BIOS-es contain a bug where they add addresses which map to
* system RAM in the PCI host bridge window returned by the ACPI _CRS
* method, see commit 4dc2287c1805 ("x86: avoid E820 regions when
* allocating address space"). To avoid this Linux by default excludes
* E820 reservations when allocating addresses since 2010.
* In 2019 some systems have shown-up with E820 reservations which cover
* the entire _CRS returned PCI host bridge window, causing all attempts
* to assign memory to PCI BARs to fail if Linux uses E820 reservations.
*
* Ideally Linux would fully stop using E820 reservations, but then
* the old systems this was added for will regress.
* Instead keep the old behavior for old systems, while ignoring the
* E820 reservations for any systems from now on.
