Ah, I didn't catch that.

Though, I mean the patch 02/10 calls iommu_alloc_pages() with GFP_KERNEL
(and not a passed gfp from iommu_map).
Then patch 09/10 accounts all iommu_alloc_pages() under NR_IOMMU_PAGES.

I think there is a difference between what's shown NR_IOMMU_PAGES and
what will have __GFP_ACCOUNT because of that.

I.e. is it the intention that this difference is not subject to
limiting?

(Note: I'm not familiar with iommu code and moreover I'm only looking at
the two patch sets, not the complete code applied. So you may correct my
reasoning.)


Thanks,
Michal
