We face some regressions on a few IXP42x systems when accessing flash, the following unrelated error prints appear from the PCI driver: ixp4xx-pci c0000000.pci: PCI: abort_handler addr = 0xff9ffb5f, isr = 0x0, status = 0x22a0 ixp4xx-pci c0000000.pci: imprecise abort (...) It turns out that while bit 7 is masked "reserved" it is not unused, so masking it off as zero is dangerous, and breaks flash access on some systems such as the NSLU2. Be more careful and avoid masking off any of the reserved bits 7, 8, 9 or 30. Only keep masking EXP_WORD (bit 2) on IXP43x which is necessary in some setups.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
