Subject: [PATCH] fsl-diu-fb: Update Freescale DIU driver to use page_alloc_exact()
Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2008 11:44:13 -0500
Message-Id: <1214325853-26150-1-git-send-email-timur@freescale.com>

Update the Freescale DIU driver to use page_alloc_exact() to allocate a
DMA buffer.  This also eliminates the rheap-based memory allocator.  We
can do this now because commit 6ccf61f9 allows us to allocate 8MB physically-
contiguous memory blocks.

My other patch, "Add alloc_pages_exact() and free_pages_exact()", must be
applied first, otherwise drivers/video/fsl-diu-fb.c will not compile.
