Re: [patch] swiotlb: fix ignored DMA_ATTR_NO_WARN request

[Mike Galbraith]

To conclude to this snail like thread (/me=walking wounded), with the
v4.16.8 hunk below, traces showing that swiotlb_alloc_coherent() was
being asked to not bother warning started showing up after the box had
been flogged for a while.

Whatever finally happens with swiotlb (seems to be in flux), other
folks meeting annoying gripeage can find bandaids in the interim.

The End

[patch] swiotlb: fix ignored DMA_ATTR_NO_WARN request

[Mike Galbraith]

In the trace below, swiotlb_alloc() is called with __GFP_NOWARN, it ors
attrs with DMA_ATTR_NO_WARN and passes it to swiotlb_alloc_buffer(),
which does NOT pass it on to swiotlb_tbl_map_single(), leading to an
ever repeating warning that the caller of swiotlb_alloc() explicitly
asked to be squelched.  Pass the caller's request for silence onward.
