Re: [PATCH 2/9] dma-direct: reject highmem pages from dma_alloc_from_contiguous

From: Robin Murphy <robin.murphy@arm.com>
Date: 2018-11-30 19:04:57
Also in: linux-iommu, lkml

dma_alloc_from_contiguous can return highmem pages depending on the
setup, which a plain non-remapping DMA allocator can't handle.  Detect
this case and try the normal page allocator instead.
...except the actual implementation is "Detect this case and fail the 
entire allocation if so".

Again, the diff itself makes sense, so given an accurate commit message,
