Feel free to throw updates in my direction. Now I just need to get my head
around the way the page tables work so I can start tampering. From your
initial description.
You may want to look at include/io.h which documents the addresses for the
podule IO area. From what you have done so far and my digging around it looks
like things can be remapped as follows:
Move Podules and IOMD to f7000000
This will allow Video RAM to be a f6e00000
Upper limit for KVM is then f6e00000 which should be more than enough.
f8000000 and up is the EASI podule space.
