Trident soundcard on Alpha/UX

[Michal Jaegermann]

An attempt to use on Alpha UX a 'trident' module on 2.2.18pre15 (and
2.2.17, and 2.2.16 with patches) with a sound card present ends up
with the following lines in 'dmesg':

Trident 4DWave/SiS 7018/Ali 5451 PCI Audio, version 0.14.6a, 23:57:52 Oct  3 2000
trident: Trident 4DWave DX found at IO 0x9800, IRQ 27
ac97_codec: AC97 Audio codec, vendor id1: 0x4352, id2: 0x5903 (Cirrus Logic CS4297)
trident: DMA buffer beyond 1 GB; bus address = 0x48158000, size = 32768

and that's it.  A presence or absence of 'bigmem" patches from Andrea
does not seem to have effects.   Any ideas how to prevent that
from happening?
