Subject: [PATCH 8/8] mm: comment arm64's usage of 'enum zone_type'
Date:   Wed, 31 Jul 2019 17:47:51 +0200
Message-Id: <20190731154752.16557-9-nsaenzjulienne@suse.de>

arm64 uses both ZONE_DMA and ZONE_DMA32 for the same reasons x86_64
does: peripherals with different DMA addressing limitations. This
updates both ZONE_DMAs comments to inform about the usage.
