From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch (as1175) makes usb-storage set a SCSI device's request-queue bounce limit such that all buffers will be located in addressable memory (i.e., not in high memory) if the host controller's dma_mask is NULL. This is necessary when the host controller doesn't support DMA: If a buffer is in high memory then the both the virtual and DMA addresses produced by the scatter-gather library will be NULL, preventing the HCD from accessing the buffer's data. In particular, the isp1760 driver needs this when used on a system with more than 1 GB of memory.
