Subject: fix DMA ops layering violations in vmwgfx
Date: Sat, 5 Jan 2019 09:01:04 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190105080108.14837-1-hch@lst.de> (raw)
Hi Thomas,
vmwgfx has been doing some odd checks based on DMA ops which rely
on deep DMA mapping layer internals, and I think the changes in
Linux 4.21 finally broke most of these implicit assumptions.
The real fix is in patch 3, but I think the others are important
to make it clear what is actually going on.
