+Subject: [PATCH] bgmac: Clean warning messages
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+On my test environment the throughput of a file transfer drops
+from 4.4MBps to 116KBps due the number of repeated warning
+messages. This patch removes the warning messages as DMA works
+correctly with addresses using 0xC0000000 bits.
