Guys, can you please start formal thread on this?  I have no
idea where this came from and what the rationale is.  Btw, if the
pfn is crap in dma_direct_mmap then the dma_addr_t passed in is
crap, as it is derived from that.  What is the caller, and how is
this triggered?


Ok, to summarize, commit 2bef9aed6f0e ("usb: usbfs: correct kernel->user
page attribute mismatch") changed a call from remap_pfn_range() to
dma_mmap_coherent() for usb data buffers being sent from userspace.

I only need to look at the commit for 3 seconds to tell you that it is
completely buggy.  While using dma_mmap_coherent is fundamentally the
right thing and absolutely required for dma_alloc_* allocations, USB
also uses it's own local gen pool allocator or plain kmalloc for not
DMA capable controller.  This need to use remap_pfn_range.  I'm pretty
sure you hit one of those cases.

The logic should be something like:

        if (hcd->localmem_pool || !hcd_uses_dma(hcd))
                remap_pfn_range()
        else
                dma_mmap_coherent()

Ok, that's simple enough, patch is below.

Jeremy, any objection to this change?

No, thats fine but since I just translated usb_alloc_coherent() to dma_map_coherent in my not fully away head. Putting this as "usb_map_cohernet()" sort of makes more sense.



thanks,
