Subject: [221/244] ARM: dma-mapping: free allocated page if unable to map
3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@....linux.org.uk>
commit d8e89b47e00ee80e920761145144640aac4cf71a upstream.
If the attempt to map a page for DMA fails (eg, because we're out of
mapping space) then we must not hold on to the page we allocated for
DMA - doing so will result in a memory leak.
