Odd. It works for me. Can you send your .config?

Hmm, but your patch puts sn_dma_get_required_mask in
arch/ia64/sn/pci/pci_dma.c. arch/ia64/sn/pci/pci_dma.c is compiled
only with CONFIG_IA64_SGI_SN2?

Odd, it works for me. Looks that #define
ARCH_HAS_DMA_GET_REQUIRED_MASK doesn't work. I'll try this with your
.config.
