Hi,

i have upported a wifi-driver (mt6625l for armhf) for some time and fall now 
(at least 5.18) in the
"rejecting DMA map of vmalloc memory" error [1].

maybe anybody here can guide me on how to nail it down and maybe fix it.

as far as i have debugged it, it uses dma_map_single [2] to get dma memory from 
a previous
allocated memory region.

this function "kalDevPortRead" in [2] is used via macro HAL_PORT_RD [3] (used 
in HAL_READ_RX_PORT
and HAL_READ_INTR_STATUS in same hal.h file)

HAL_READ_INTR_STATUS is always called with an empty int array as buf which i 
guess is not the problem.
I think the issue is using the use with an preallocated prSDIOCtrl struct (have 
not completely traced
it back where it is allocated).

calls of HAL_PORT_RD/HAL_READ_RX_PORT are in nic{,_rx}.c (with sdio-struct) 
([4] as example)

maybe there is a simple way to get an address in preallocated memory as 
replacement for the dma_map_simple call (and the unmap of course).

regards Frank
