[PATCH 3.18 02/52] scsi: sg: disable SET_FORCE_LOW_DMA

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 29 2018 - 16:20:28 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@xxxxxxx>

commit 745dfa0d8ec26b24f3304459ff6e9eacc5c8351b upstream.

The ioctl SET_FORCE_LOW_DMA has never worked since the initial git
check-in, and the respective setting is nowadays handled correctly. So
disable it entirely.
