x86/boot/e820: Simplify the PPro Erratum #50 workaround
No need to print out the table - users won't really be able to tell much from it anyway and the messages around this erratum are unnecessarily obtuse. Instead clearly inform the user that a 256 kB hole is being punched in their memory map at the 1.75 GB physical address. Not that there are many PPro users left. :-) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: H .
