[PATCH 1/2] mm: cma: adjust address limit to avoid hitting low/high memory boundary

From: Michal Nazarewicz <hidden>
Date: 2014-08-24 13:34:27
Also in: linux-mm

On Thu, Aug 21 2014, Marek Szyprowski [off-list ref] wrote:
Automatically allocated regions should not cross low/high memory boundary,
because such regions cannot be later correctly initialized due to spanning
across two memory zones. This patch adds a check for this case and a simple
code for moving region to low memory if automatically selected address might
not fit completely into high memory.
