Highmem crash

[Hemanth V]

Hi All,

I am seeing the below crash if I pass __GFP_HIGHMEM flag to
dma_alloc_coherent. Is this a known issue. I am currently using
2.6.31-rc7 kernel along with 2 latest highmem patches from Nicolas Pitre
tree (http://git.marvell.com/?p=orion.git;a=summary).

Thanks
Hemanth
