Trivial patch to fix the gma500 thing below:
---8<---
mm,shmem,thp: limit shmem THP allocations to requested zones
Hugh pointed out that the gma500 driver uses shmem pages, but needs
to limit them to the DMA32 zone. Ensure the allocations resulting from
the gfp_mask returned by limit_gfp_mask use the zone flags that were
originally passed to shmem_getpage_gfp.
