[PATCH -mm 0/6] remove unnecessary sync_single_range_* in dma_map_ops
This patchset removes useless sync_single_range_for_cpu and sync_single_range_for_device hooks in dma_map_ops. These hooks were for dma_sync_single_range_* DMA API, however, the API became obsolete (the description in DMA API docs was removed too). Architecutres should use sync_single_for_cpu and sync_single_for_de... 27 Apr 2010 08:45

[PATCH 10/22] KVM: MMU: Introduce generic walk_addr function
This is the first patch in the series towards a generic walk_addr implementation which could walk two-dimensional page tables in the end. In this first step the walk_addr function is renamed into walk_addr_generic which takes a mmu context as an additional parameter. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel(a)amd... 27 Apr 2010 07:38
