Thanks,

Any tree works for me, I thought about -mm though.

Can you replace [1/3] with the following?

I fixed the subject and the body, s/aha1532/aha1542/;

Somehow I forgot to remove unused BAD_SG_DMA().

Subject: [PATCH 1/3] aha1542: remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD usage

We can safely remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD usage in aha1542. aha1542 uses
ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD to see if:

- the buffers in scatter/list are below 16MB.
- scsi_host is below 16MB.

Both checkings were added in the ancient times but aren't necessary
nowadays since we properly bounce the buffers and allocate scsi_host
below 16MB with non-zero unchecked_isa_dma.
