[PATCH] Revert "dma-contiguous: do not allocate a single page from CMA area"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This reverts commit d222e42e88168fd67e6d131984b86477af1fc256.

The original change breaks omap dss:
    omapdss_dispc 58001000.dispc:
        dispc_errata_i734_wa_init: dma_alloc_writecombine failed

Let's revert it first and then find a safer solution instead.
