Its filename is mmc-at91_mci-use-one-coherent-dma-buffer.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: mmc: at91_mci: use one coherent DMA buffer From: Wolfgang Muees <wolfgang.mues@xxxxxxxxxxxx> The TX DMA buffer is allocated only once, because the allocation/deallocation of the buffer for EACH chunk of data is time-consuming and prone to memory fragmentation. Using a coherent DMA buffer avoids extra data cache calls.
