OvmfPkg/VirtNorFlashDxe: map flash memory as uncacheable
Switching from the ArmPlatformPkg/NorFlashDxe driver to the OvmfPkg/VirtNorFlashDxe driver had the side effect that flash address space got registered as EFI_MEMORY_WC instead of EFI_MEMORY_UC. That confuses the linux kernel's numa code, seems this makes kernel consider the flash being node memory. "lsmem" changes from ... RANGE SIZE STATE REMOVABLE BLOCK 0x0000000040000000-0x000000013fffffff 4G online yes 8-39 ... to ... RANGE SIZE STATE REMOVABLE BLOCK 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000007ffffff 128M online yes 0 0x0000000040000000-0x000000013fffffff 4G online yes 8-39 ... and in the kernel log got new error lines: NUMA: Warning: invalid memblk node 512 [mem 0x0000000004000000-0x0000000007ffffff] NUMA: Faking a node at [mem 0x0000000004000000-0x000000013fffffff] Changing the attributes back to EFI_MEMORY_UC fixes this.
