commit 03521c892bb8d0712c23e158ae9bdf8705897df8 upstream. Commit370645f41e("dma-mapping: force bouncing if the kmalloc() size is not cache-line-aligned") introduced DMA_BOUNCE_UNALIGNED_KMALLOC feature and permitted architecture specific code configure kmalloc slabs with sizes smaller than the value of dma_get_cache_alignment(). When that feature is enabled, the physical address of some small kmalloc()-ed buffers might be not aligned to the CPU cachelines, thus not really suitable for typical DMA. To properly handle that case a SWIOTLB buffer bouncing is used, so no CPU cache corruption occurs. When that happens, there is no point reporting a false-positive DMA-API warning that the buffer is not properly aligned, as this is not a client driver fault.

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.
