[ 97/98] ARM: DMA-mapping: add missing GFP_DMA flag for atomic buffer allocation

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

 



3.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9d1400cf79afb49584b4873eb22cd5130cb341db upstream.

Atomic pool should always be allocated from DMA zone if such zone is
available in the system to avoid issues caused by limited dma mask of
any of the devices used for making an atomic allocation.
