This rev looks much better to me, at least. Thanks for fixing it up.

> This is a patch to guarantee that alloc_bootmem_low() allocate DMA area.
>
> Current alloc_bootmem_low() is just specify "goal=0". And it is
> used for __alloc_bootmem_core() to decide which address is better.
> However, there is no guarantee that __alloc_bootmem_core()
> allocate DMA area when goal=0 is specified.
> Even if there is no DMA'ble area in searching node, it allocates
> higher address than MAX_DMA_ADDRESS.
>
> __alloc_bootmem_core() is called by order of for_each_pgdat()
> in __alloc_bootmem(). So, if first node (node_id = 0) has
> DMA'ble area, no trouble will occur. However, our new Itanium2 server
> can change which node has lower address. And panic really occurred on it.
> The message was "bounce buffer is not DMA'ble" in swiothl_map_single().
>
> To avoid this panic, following patch confirms allocated area, and retry
> if it is not in DMA.
> I tested this patch on my Tiger 4 and our new server.
