Hello,
The constant MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is used at two places in the code, and I
believe that ">=" comparsion should be used instead of ">". Compare
with other drivers that use that constant.
Also, comments say something about hardware problems related to 16MiB
but the code checks against MAX_DMA_ADDRESS that could be set to
something else than 16MiB on non-i386 archs.
I think the most portable solution would be to remove the entire
"high_memory vs MAX_DMA_ADDRESS"-check and always enable
bounce-buffers for ISA-devices and BT-445S.
Who is running a 2.6-kernel on a machine with 16MiB or less RAM and
SCSI these days anyway...?
