Subject: [REGRESSION 4.20] mvneta - DMA-API: device driver tries to sync DMA
 memory it has not allocated

Hi,

Booting 4.20 on SolidRun Clearfog reliably provokes the following
warning - this is with mvneta built in, but DSA as modules:

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 555 at kernel/dma/debug.c:1230 check_sync+0x514/0x5bc

...

This appears to be from:

                if (rx_bytes <= rx_copybreak) {
                        /* better copy a small frame and not unmap the DMA region */
                        skb = netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align(dev, rx_bytes);
                        if (unlikely(!skb))
                                goto err_drop_frame_ret_pool;

                        dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu(dev->dev.parent,
                                                      rx_desc->buf_phys_addr,
                                                      MVNETA_MH_SIZE + NET_SKB_PAD,
                                                      rx_bytes,
                                                      DMA_FROM_DEVICE);

which suggests that rx_desc->buf_phys_addr is not something that should
be passed to dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu().  I've not been able to
track down why that is, nor which interface is provoking that.

As I don't have the details of how the buffer management hardware works
on Armada 388, I'm unable to debug this myself.
