This patch fixes a bug found by Nish Aravamudan
|
||||
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/15/220) where the driver is not following
|
||||
the spec (it is not aligning the rx buffer on a 16-byte boundary) and the
|
||||
hypervisor aborts the registration, making the device unusable.
|
||||
|
||||
The fix follows BenH's recommendation (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/20/461)
|
||||
to replace the kmalloc+map for a single call to dma_alloc_coherent()
|
||||
because that function always aligns to a 16-byte boundary.
|
||||
|
||||
The stable trees will run into this bug whenever the rx buffer kmalloc call
|
||||
returns something not aligned on a 16-byte boundary.
