[PATCH 09/16] cnic: stop passing bogus gfp flags arguments to dma_alloc_coherent

Christoph Hellwig hch at lst.de
Fri Jun 14 13:47:19 UTC 2019


dma_alloc_coherent is not just the page allocator.  The only valid
arguments to pass are either GFP_ATOMIC or GFP_ATOMIC with possible
modifiers of __GFP_NORETRY or __GFP_NOWARN.
