From: Sumit Bhattacharya Date: Wed, 23 Nov 2011 23:47:12 +0000 (+0100) Subject: ARM: 7172/1: dma: Drop GFP_COMP for DMA memory allocations X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ea2e7057c0234cfb8b09467d8f137760d371fc72;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git ARM: 7172/1: dma: Drop GFP_COMP for DMA memory allocations dma_alloc_coherent wants to split pages after allocation in order to reduce the memory footprint. This does not work well with GFP_COMP pages, so drop this flag before allocation. This patch is ported from arch/avr32 (commit 3611553ef985ef7c5863c8a94641738addd04cff).
