From e89f5b37015309a8bdf0b21d08007580b92f92a4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2018 15:35:35 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] dma-mapping: Don't clear GFP_ZERO in dma_alloc_attrs Revert the clearing of __GFP_ZERO in dma_alloc_attrs and move it to dma_direct_alloc for now. While most common architectures always zero dma cohereny allocations (and x86 did so since day one) this is not documented and at least arc and s390 do not zero without the explicit __GFP_ZERO argument.
