--- Comment #8 from Steven Friedrich <Steven.E.Friedrich@Gmail.com> ---
As an old hardware guy, I was curious when I saw this message:
"unknown: memory range not supported"

and this device:
none0@pci0:0:20:2:      class=3D0x050000 card=3D0x72708086 chip=3D0xa36f808=
6 rev=3D0x10
hdr=3D0x00
    vendor     =3D 'Intel Corporation'
    device     =3D 'Cannon Lake PCH Shared SRAM'
    class      =3D memory
    subclass   =3D RAM

I thought, what is that?  Well I found a rather opaque description in an In=
tel
document at:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/technical-spec=
ifications/300-series-chipset-on-package-pch-datasheet-vol-1.pdf

21.7.2   SRAM
The local SRAM is used for ISH FW code storage and to read/write operational
data.  The local SRAM block includes both the physical SRAM as well as the
controller logic.  The SRAM is a total of 640 kbytes organized into banks o=
f 32
kB each and is 32-bit wide.  The SRAM is shared with Intel CSME as shareable
memory.  To protect against memory errors, the SRAM includes ECC support.  =
The
ECC mechanism is able to detect multi-bit errors and correct for single bit
errors.  The ISH firmware has the ability to put unused SRAM banks into low=
er
power states to reduce power consumption.

That sounds to me like memory Intel uses between their OWN devices.
I would hope you would contact technical support at Intel and get clarifica=
tion
of whether you should be ignoring this memory range and leave it untouched.
