USB: storage: set bounce limit for non-DMA-capable host controllers
This patch (as1175) makes usb-storage set a SCSI device's
request-queue bounce limit such that all buffers will be located in
addressable memory (i.e., not in high memory) if the host controller's
dma_mask is NULL. This is necessary when the host controller doesn't
support DMA: If a buffer is in high memory then the both the virtual
and DMA addresses produced by the scatter-gather library will be NULL,
preventing the HCD from accessing the buffer's data.
In particular, the isp1760 driver needs this when used on a system
with more than 1 GB of memory.
