Subject: [PATCH v5 5/5] [media] s5p-mfc: Set DMA_ATTR_NO_HUGE_PAGE

We do video allocation all the time and we need it to be fast.  Plus TLB
efficiency isn't terribly important for video.

That means we want to set DMA_ATTR_NO_HUGE_PAGE.

See also the previous change ("ARM: dma-mapping: Use
DMA_ATTR_NO_HUGE_PAGE hint to optimize allocation").

Signed-off-by: Douglas Anderson <dianders@...omium.org>
