Subject: [PATCH net v2] net: ethernet: microchip: lan743x: Fix memory allocation failure
Date: Tue, 25 Mar 2025 16:26:53 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250325105653.6607-1-thangaraj.s@microchip.com> (raw)

The driver allocates ring elements using GFP_DMA flags. There is
no dependency from LAN743x hardware on memory allocation should be
in DMA_ZONE. Hence modifying the flags to use only GFP_ATOMIC

Fixes: e8684db191e4 ("net: ethernet: microchip: lan743x: Fix skb allocation failure")
