Message-ID: <144512537419013@kroah.com> (raw)


This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    MIPS: dma-default: Fix 32-bit fall back to GFP_DMA

to the 4.1-stable tree which can be found at:
    http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary

The filename of the patch is:

Subject: MIPS: dma-default: Fix 32-bit fall back to GFP_DMA

From: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com>

commit 53960059d56ecef67d4ddd546731623641a3d2d1 upstream.

If there is a DMA zone (usually 24bit = 16MB I believe), but no DMA32
zone, as is the case for some 32-bit kernels, then massage_gfp_flags()
will cause DMA memory allocated for devices with a 32..63-bit
coherent_dma_mask to fall back to using __GFP_DMA, even though there may
only be 32-bits of physical address available anyway.

Correct that case to compare against a mask the size of phys_addr_t
instead of always using a 64-bit mask.
