32GB SSD on USB1.1 P3/700 == ___HELL___ (2.6.34-rc3)

[PATCH -mm 2/5] asm-generic: add NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH to define sg_dma_len()
There are only two ways to define sg_dma_len(); use sg->dma_length or sg->length. This patch introduces NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH that enables architectures to choose sg->dma_length or sg->length.

[PATCH -mm 1/5] asm-generic: remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in scatterlist.h
The trick for ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in asm-generic/scatterlist.h doesn't work for powerpc. This lets architectures defin ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD. Hopefully, we can remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in the future; we can do better to decide if the bouncing is necessary or not. Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori(a)lab.nt... 4 Apr 2010 11:31
