I've hit this with IrDA driver on PXA. Also I've seen the report regarding

So you want to continue to allow the page allocator to return pages from 
anywhere, even when GFP_DMA is specified, just as though it was lowmem?

No.  What *everyone* is asking for is to allow the situation which has
persisted thus far to continue for ONE MORE RELEASE but with a WARNING
so that these problems can be found without causing REGRESSIONS.

That is NOT an unreasonable request, but it seems that its far too much
to ask of you.
