From 204b885e7322656284626949e51f292fe61313fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joerg Roedel Date: Tue, 29 Jul 2008 22:33:42 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] introduce lower_32_bits() macro The file kernel.h contains the upper_32_bits macro. This patch adds the other part, the lower_32_bits macro. Its first use will be in the driver for AMD IOMMU. Cc: H.
