From 06d4dd2f2ce1cdb625f77c0676d5af6ba310c01d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Fri, 14 Dec 2018 09:15:02 +0100 Subject: dma-mapping: deprecate dma_zalloc_coherent We now always return zeroed memory from dma_alloc_coherent. Note that simply passing GFP_ZERO to dma_alloc_coherent wasn't always doing the right thing to start with given that various allocators are not backed by the page allocator and thus would ignore GFP_ZERO.
