[ Upstream commitaabd12609f] The number of areas defaults to the number of possible CPUs. However, the total number of slots may have to be increased after adjusting the number of areas. Consequently, the number of areas must be determined before allocating the memory pool. This is even explained with a comment in swiotlb_init_remap(), but swiotlb_init_late() adjusts the number of areas after slots are already allocated. The areas may end up being smaller than IO_TLB_SEGSIZE, which breaks per-area locking. While fixing swiotlb_init_late(), move all relevant comments before the definition of swiotlb_adjust_nareas() and convert them to kernel-doc.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
