Yes, most architectures always clear memory returned by dma_alloc*. Looks like a few don't and my commit got them in trouble. As usual I'd prefer to match x86 semantics for now to avoid problems. I'll send patches for arc and s390 which seem to be actually used holdouts, and will look if anyone else is also affected. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe dmaengine" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
