      MIPS: Alchemy: Fix dbdma ring destruction memory debugcheck. · 22f4bb68
      Manuel Lauss authored
      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:
      [<80186010>] cache_free_debugcheck+0x284/0x318

      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.
