Subject: [PATCH 1/1] media: intel/ipu6: Don't re-allocate memory for firmware

The ipu6 driver allocated vmalloc memory for the firmware if
request_firmware() somehow managed not to use vmalloc to allocate it.

Still how the memory is allocated by request_firmware() is not specified
in its API, so be prepared for kmalloc-allocated firmware, too. Instead of
allocating new vmalloc-backed buffer for the firmware, obtain the pages
from virtual addresses instead.

Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@...b.auug.org.au>
Fixes: 25fedc021985 ("media: intel/ipu6: add Intel IPU6 PCI device driver")

Hello everyone,

Mauro preferred not to merge the earlier patch. Admittedly, there are
better ways to fix the problem. Such as this one.
