From d6f38f31f3ad4b0dd33fe970988f14e7c65ef702 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Williams Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2009 11:50:52 -0700 Subject: md/raid5,6: add percpu scribble region for buffer lists Use percpu memory rather than stack for storing the buffer lists used in parity calculations. Include space for dma address conversions and pass that to async_tx via the async_submit_ctl.scribble pointer.
