tg3 being often used as a reference network driver, I believe we should
change its allocations before too many people copy paste suboptimal
pci_alloc_consistent() stuff...
Matt, could you please queue this patch and submit it to David when
net-next-2.6 reopens ?
Thanks
[PATCH] tg3: use dma_alloc_coherent() instead of pci_alloc_consistent()
Using dma_alloc_coherent() permits to use GFP_KERNEL allocations instead
of GFP_ATOMIC ones. Its better when a machine is out of memory, because
this allows driver to sleep to get its memory and succeed its init,
especially when allocating high order pages.
