This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled

    Fix a few incorrectly checked [io_]remap_pfn_range() calls

to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree 
which can be found at:

 http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue

This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.13.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please 
reply to this email.

Subject: Fix a few incorrectly checked [io_]remap_pfn_range() calls

commit 7314e613d5ff9f0934f7a0f74ed7973b903315d1 upstream.

Nico Golde reports a few straggling uses of [io_]remap_pfn_range() that
really should use the vm_iomap_memory() helper.  This trivially converts
two of them to the helper, and comments about why the third one really
needs to continue to use remap_pfn_range(), and adds the missing size
check.
