Yuri, Saeed, can I get your acked-by's for the following 2.6.28 patch:

Thanks,

async_xor: dma_map destination DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams at intel.com>

Mapping the destination multiple times is a misuse of the dma-api.
Since the destination may be reused as a source, ensure that it is only
mapped once and that it is mapped bidirectionally.  This appears to add
ugliness on the unmap side in that it always reads back the destination
address from the descriptor, but gcc can determine that dma_unmap is a
nop and not emit the code that calculates its arguments.
