They use a few others things still like __GFP_COMP, __GPF_DMA or GFP_HUGEPAGE. But all these are bogus as we have various implementations that can't respect them. I plan to get rid of the gfp_t argument in the dma_map_ops alloc method in a few merge windows because of that, but it needs further implementation consolidation first.
