Force alphas to prefer mem mapping as the default. Basically, we have a pointer to a function which we can call which will return us a pointer to firmware for the card we have. We call this function (if it's non-NULL) with the address of our mdvec f/w pointer. The way this works is that if ispfw (as a module or a static) is loaded, it initializes the pointer in isp_pci, so we can call into to it to fetch a pointer to a f/w set. If ispfw is MOD_UNLOADed, it's retained a pointer to our mdvec f/w pointers, which then get zeroed out so we don't have any references to data that's now gone from kernel memory. Removing the f/w saves ~360KBytes. Alas, there is no autounload mechanism that works for is here. |
