Now we have IS_ENABLED helper to check if a Kconfig option is enabled or not,
so ZONE_DMA_FLAG sounds no longer useful.

And, the use of ZONE_DMA_FLAG in slab looks pointless according to the
comment [1] from Johannes Weiner, so remove them and ORing passed in flags with
the cache gfp flags has been done in kmem_getpages().

I haven't checked the patch but I have a formal suggestion.
lkml.org tends to break and forget, please use
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/$msg-id instead. In this case
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140925185047.GA21089@xxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks for the suggestion. Will use msg-id in later post.

Regards,
Yang


Thanks!
