[patch 04/45] BLOCK: Fix bounce limit address check
From: Greg KH
Date: Mon Jul 17 2006 - 12:41:34 EST
-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
This fixes some OOMs on 64bit systems with <4GB of RAM when accessing
the cdrom.
Do a safer check for when to enable DMA. Currently we enable ISA DMA
for cases that do not need it, resulting in OOM conditions when ZONE_DMA
runs out of space.
