Cover letter [PATCH v3 0/7] dma-debug cleanup and dynamic allocation
Hi all,
Here's some assorted cleanup and improvements to dma-debug which grew out of the problem that certain drivers use very large numbers of DMA mappings, and knowing when to override "dma_debug_entries=..." and what value to override it with can be a less-than-obvious task for users.
The main part is patch #4, wherein we make dma-debug clever enough to allocate more entries dynamically if needed, such that the preallocation value becomes more of a quality-of-life option than a necessity. Patches #5 and #6 do some cruft-removal to allow patch #7 to make the allocation behaviour more efficient in general.
Patches #1, #2 and #4 are some other cleanup and handy features which fell out of the discussion/development.
Robin.
