The patch titled
ppc64: iommu vmerge fix
has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is
ppc64-iommu-vmerge-fix.patch
Patches currently in -mm which might be from [EMAIL PROTECTED] are
ppc64-iommu-vmerge-fix.patch
From: Brian King <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The patch below fixes a bug in the PPC64 iommu vmerge code which results in
the potential for iommu_unmap_sg to go off unmapping more than it should.
This was found on a test system which resulted in PCI bus errors due to PCI
memory being unmapped while DMAs were still in progress.
