From 0be210fd664b07531cb238bafb453a2a54c2a7a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Hansen Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2008 08:21:35 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/mm: Make careful_allocation() return virtual addrs Since we memset() the result in both of the uses here, just make careful_alloc() return a virtual address. Also, add a separate variable to store the physial address that comes back from the lmb_alloc() functions. This makes it less likely that someone will screw it up forgetting to convert before returning since the vaddr is always in a void* and the paddr is always in an unsigned long. I admit this is arbitrary since one of its users needs a paddr and one a vaddr, but it does remove a good number of casts.
