Title:
  Only 664MB memory found by the kernel on pandaboard

Status in Linaro Android:
  Fix Released
Status in Linaro Texas Instruments Landing Team:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  While the pandaboard is said to have 1GB memory (and so says U-boot),
  the linux android kernel is far from the count:

  Under linaro android (11.09-release, build finished 2011-09-26 09:29:05):
  Kernel command line: console=tty0 console=ttyO2,115200n8 rootwait ro earlyprintk fixrtc nocompcache vram=48M omapfb.vram=0:24M,1:24M mem=456M@0x80000000 mem=512M@0xA0000000 init=/init androidboot.console=ttyO2
  Memory: 456MB 208MB = 664MB total

  In fact, it comes from this:
  Truncating RAM at a0000000-bfffffff to -afffffff (vmalloc region overlap).

  According to /proc/config.gz:
  # CONFIG_HIGHMEM is not set

  On the other hand, there shouldn't be a need for highmem, since under linaro nano (11.05-daily, 20110929):
  Kernel command line: console=tty0 console=ttyO2,115200n8  root=UUID=76be3087-f3ea-47c5-9f55-a0af76daef81 rootwait ro earlyprintk fixrtc nocompcache vram=48M omapfb.vram=0:24M mem=456M@0x80000000 mem=512M@0xA0000000
  Memory: 456MB 208MB 256MB = 920MB total
