dma-pool's dev_to_pool() creates the false impression that there is a way to grantee a mapping between a device's DMA constraints and an atomic pool. It tuns out it's just a guess, and the device might need to use an atomic pool containing memory from a 'safer' (or lower) memory zone. To help mitigate this, introduce dma_guess_pool() which can be fed a device's DMA constraints and atomic pools already known to be faulty, in order for it to provide an better guess on which pool to use.

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.
