Hi Greg,

I know you are not entirely happy with the direct get_pages usage in this
patch-set, but as discussed that is currently the only way to get DMA32
memory.

Adding a better API for getting DMA32 mem really falls outside of the scope
of these patches and in the mean time the vboxguest driver is broken on 
VMs with more then 4G RAM, can we please get this bug-fix series merged to
fix this bug?

Regards,

Hans
