Hi Bruce,

I think you will find the fragment in kernel-2.4.18/linux/arch/ia64/sn/io/ate_utils.c
It looks to me a part supplied by SGI to support special SGI hardware.
I think there has been some discussion about replacing this code, as it is really ugly. Normally this kind of code gets removed in an environment with constant peer reviews.

It's already been removed from the 2.6 code tree.
