+/* Tests for presence or absence of hardware registers.
+ * This code was originally in atari/config.c, but I noticed
+ * that it was also in drivers/nubus/nubus.c and I wanted to
+ * use it in hp300/config.c, so it seemed sensible to pull it
+ * out into its own file.
+ * 
+ * The test is for use when trying to read a hardware register
+ * that isn't present would cause a bus error. We set up a 
+ * temporary handler so that this doesn't kill the kernel.
+ *
+ * There is a test-by-reading and a test-by-writing; I present
+ * them here complete with the comments from the original atari
+ * config.c...
+ *                -- PMM <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>, 05/1998

+/* This function tests for the presence of an address, specially a
+ * hardware register address. It is called very early in the kernel
+ * initialization process, when the VBR register isn't set up yet. On
+ * an Atari, it still points to address 0, which is unmapped. So a bus
+ * error would cause another bus error while fetching the exception
+ * vector, and the CPU would do nothing at all. So we needed to set up
+ * a temporary VBR and a vector table for the duration of the test.
