Subject: [GIT PULL] DMA-mapping updates for v3.9-rc3

Hi Linus,

I would like to ask You for pulling a fix for ARM dma-mapping subsystem
for v3.9-rc3.

The following changes since commit 6dbe51c251a327e012439c4772097a13df43c5b8:

are available in the git repository at:

  git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping.git fixes-for-3.9

  ARM: DMA-mapping: add missing GFP_DMA flag for atomic buffer allocation (2013-03-14 09:25:19 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------

This pull contains an important fix for all ARM architectures which use
ZONE_DMA. Without it dma_alloc_* calls with GFP_ATOMIC flag might have
allocated buffers outsize DMA zone.

Thanks!

Best regards
