Subject: net: mvpp2: fix DMA address calculation in mvpp2_txq_inc_put()

From: Thomas Petazzoni <[email protected]>

commit 239a3b663647869330955ec59caac0100ef9b60a upstream.

When TX descriptors are filled in, the buffer DMA address is split between the tx_desc->buf_phys_addr field (high-order bits) and tx_desc->packet_offset field (5 low-order bits).

However, when we re-calculate the DMA address from the TX descriptor in mvpp2_txq_inc_put(), we do not take tx_desc->packet_offset into account. This means that when the DMA address is not aligned on a 32 bytes boundary, we end up calling dma_unmap_single() with a DMA address that was not the one returned by dma_map_single().

This inconsistency is detected by the kernel when DMA_API_DEBUG is enabled. We fix this problem by properly calculating the DMA address in mvpp2_txq_inc_put().
