Detailed Description
Problem: CQ #13666: NDIS2 OS/2 traps when copy files only when
HPFS386 is installed.

Cause: HPFS386 passes a physical pointer to the driver and it needs
to be mapped to a GDT Selector so the driver can use it to
copy the receiving data up to the Protocol. The driver uses
an invalid data selector/segment to address the call to the
OS/2 DevHlp for the mapping of the physical pointer.

Change: Driver uses correct data selector/segment to make the call.

Impact: OS/2 driver.

Supported Devices
