Will do.

This is used by debugfs code to direct to debugfs, and
nvhost_debug_dump() to send via printk.

Ok.

I have another suggestion. In downstream I removed the decoding part and
I just print out a string of hex. That removes quite a bit bunch of code
from kernel. It makes the debug output also more compact.
It's much easier to write a user space program to decode than maintain
it in kernel.

show_channels() acquires cdma.lock, so that shouldn't happen.

Because of a race - memory might've been unpinned and unmapped from
IOMMU and when we re-map (pin), we are given a new address.
But, I think this comment is a bit stale - we used to dump also old
gathers. The latest code only dumps jobs in sync queue, so the race
shouldn't happen.

I prefer "could not", so I'll use that.

Yes, will merge.

I propose I remove the decoding from kernel, and save 200 lines.
