[PATCH] fix order calculation indma_mark_declared_memory_occupied()

From: Jan Beulich
Date: Thu Jul 31 2008 - 11:46:19 EST


get_order() takes byte-sized input, not a page-granular one.

Irrespective of this fix I'm inclined to believe that this doesn't work
right anyway - bitmap_allocate_region() has an implicit assumption of
'pos' being suitable for 'order', which this function doesn't seem to
enforce (and since it's being called with a byte-granular value there's
no reason to believe that the callers would make sure device_addr is
passed accordingly - it's also not documented that way).
