Konrad,

I was hoping that we could get rid of the dma_address shuffling into
core TTM,
like I mentioned in the review. From what I can tell it's now only
used in the backend and
core ttm doesn't care about it.

Is there a particular reason we're still passing it around?

Thanks,
/Thomas

I am working on patchset on top of this that will move dma handling
back to driver and mostly out of ttm (the page alloc helper will
still do dma stuff on behalf of driver) So if my patchset is acceptable
the dma situation is transionary.

Cheers,
Jerome
Cool.

Thanks, Jerome.
