From 5457e03de918f7a3e294eb9d26a608ab8a579976 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gerald Schaefer Date: Mon, 21 Nov 2016 12:13:58 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] s390/vmlogrdr: fix IUCV buffer allocation The buffer for iucv_message_receive() needs to be below 2 GB. In __iucv_message_receive(), the buffer address is casted to an u32, which would result in either memory corruption or an addressing exception when using addresses >= 2 GB. Fix this by using GFP_DMA for the buffer allocation.
