[GIT PULL] (swiotlb) stable/for-linus-3.8-rc0-tag

Hey Linus,

Please git pull the following tag:

git pull git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/swiotlb.git stable/for-linus-3.8-rc0-tag

which has one feature in the SWIOTLB code. That is to remove
the multitude of phys_to_virt/virt_to_phys calls and instead
operate on the physical addresses instead of virtual in many
of the internal functions. This does provide a speed up in interrupt
handlers that do DMA operations and use SWIOTLB.

Please pull!
