Well we can make it fail if you want to do that. Currently if you do not have CONFIG_ZONE_DMA set it simply ignores GFP_DMA because of the weird stuff in places like the SCSI layer. If you would fix it up then I could warn on GFP_DMA. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
