The patch titled
memblock/nobootmem: allow alloc_bootmem() to take 0 as low limit
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
memblock-nobootmem-allow-alloc_bootmem-to-take-0-as-low-limit.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: memblock/nobootmem: allow alloc_bootmem() to take 0 as low limit
From: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@xxxxxxxxxx>
The bootmem wrapper with memblock supports top-down now, so we do not need
to set the low limit to __pa(MAX_DMA_ADDRESS).
The logic should be: good to allocate above __pa(MAX_DMA_ADDRESS), but it
is ok if we can not find memory above 16M on system that has a small
amount of RAM.
