Subject[PATCH 4.9 077/164] xhci: remove GFP_DMA flag from allocation
Message-ID<tKoBm-8ko-59@gated-at.bofh.it>
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Matthias Lange <matthias.lange@kernkonzept.com>

commit 5db851cf20857c5504b146046e97cb7781f2a743 upstream.

There is no reason to restrict allocations to the first 16MB ISA DMA
addresses.

It is causing problems in a virtualization setup with enabled IOMMU
(x86_64). The result is that USB is not working in the VM.
