Hi Konrad,

just a gentle ping.

It looks like the patch "swiotlb: suppress warning when __GFP_NOWARN is 
set" didn't made it into 4.15 and now people are bombarding us with bug 
reports about that.

Did you already send that one out for inclusion in 4.16? It also has a 
stable tag, so it should be backported to 4.15.x once it lands in Linus 
tree.

Thanks in advance,
Christian.
