    MIPS: Alchemy: Fix dbdma ring destruction memory debugcheck. · 22f4bb68
    Manuel Lauss 提交于
    DBDMA descriptors need to be located at 32-byte aligned addresses;
    however kmalloc in conjunction with the SLAB allocator and
    CONFIG_DEBUG_SLUB enabled doesn't deliver any.  The dbdma code works
    around that by allocating a larger area and realigning the start
    address within it.
    
    When freeing a channel however this adjustment is not taken into
    account which results in an oops:
    
    Kernel bug detected[#1]:
    [...]
    Call Trace:

    Fix this by recording the address delivered by kmalloc() and using
    it as parameter to kfree().
    
    This fix is only necessary with the SLAB allocator and CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
    enabled;  non-debug SLAB, SLUB do return nicely aligned addresses,
    debug-enabled SLUB currently panics early in the boot process.
