SLAB_CACHE_DMA32??? WTH is going on here? We are trying to get rid of
the dma slab array.
See the previous two patches in this series. If there's already a (better) way
to have a kmem_cache which allocates its backing pages with GFP_DMA32, please
do let us know.
Was not cced on the whole patchset. Trying to find it. Its best to
allocate DMA memory through the page based allocation functions.
dma_alloc_coherent() and friends.
