Subject: Re: [PATCH] s390/ism: Add check for dma_set_max_seg_size in
 ism_probe()

I think formally you're correct. dma_set_max_seg_size() could return an
error if dev->dma_parms was not present.

However, since ISM devices are PCI attached (and will remain PCI
attached I believe) we can take the existance of dev->dma_parms for
granted since pci_device_add() (in drivers/pci/probe.c) will make that
point to the pci_dev's dma_parms for every PCI device.

So I'm not sure how important this fix is.

BTW, I've dropped ubraun@...ux.ibm.com and sebott@...ux.ibm.com as
their emails won't work any longer, anyhow. Instead I've added Niklas
Schnelle, Wenjia Zhang and Stefan Raspl.

Thanks, Gerd
