Hi,

I found that page_to_phys() is broken for pages > 4GB on x86.
It is truncating the physical addresses to 32bit, loosing higher
bits. (pci_map_sg() uses this).

Here is the patch to fix it. Marcelo, could you consider this
patch ? I have not looked at 2.5 yet, it may be needed there also.

Thanks,
Badari
