Do not hack around it, just fix your scatterlist definition instead. I'm trying to push a Documentation/DMA-mapping.txt update to Linus which talks about this explicitly and requires your port to have those fields. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
