Hmm, we cannot set ibft_addr to early pointer to the ACPI table.
Let's try something more disruptive and move the reservation back to
iscsi_ibft_find.c.

Still no luck Mike,

We're back to the original problem where the only thing that worked was to
run "SetPageReserved(page)" before calling "kmap(page)". The page is being
"freed" before ibft_init() is called as a result of the recent buddy page
freeing changes.
I keep missing some little details each time :(
No worries. Thanks for all your help. Does this patch go on top of your previous patch or is it standalone?

George
Ok, let's try from the different angle.
