      USB: usb/dma doc updates · fbf54dd3
      David Brownell 提交于
      This patch updates some of the documentation about DMA buffer management
      for USB, and ways to avoid extra copying.  Our understanding of the issues
      has improved over time.
      
       - Most drivers should *avoid* the dma-coherent allocators.  There are
         a few exceptions (like the HID driver).
      
       - Some methods are currently commented out; it seems folk writing
         USB drivers aren't doing performance tuning at that level yet.
      
       - Just avoid highmem; there's no good way to pass an "I can do highmem
         DMA" capability through a driver stack.  This is easy, everything
         already avoids highmem.  But it'd be nice if x86_32 systems with much
         physical memory could use it directly with network adapters and mass
         storage devices.  (Patch, anyone?)

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
