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

    xhci: remove GFP_DMA flag from allocation

to my usb git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: xhci: remove GFP_DMA flag from allocation

There is no reason to restrict allocations to the first 16MB ISA DMA
addresses.

It is causing problems in a virtualization setup with enabled IOMMU
(x86_64). The result is that USB is not working in the VM.
