From: Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer@xxxxxxxxxx> 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. =============== commit 5457e03de918f7a3e294eb9d26a608ab8a579976 upstream. The buffer for iucv_message_receive() needs to be below 2 GB. In __iucv_message_receive(), the buffer address is casted to an u32, which would result in either memory corruption or an addressing exception when using addresses >= 2 GB. Fix this by using GFP_DMA for the buffer allocation.
