Marek Szyprowski a929f067a8 arm64: dma-mapping: clear buffers allocated with FORCE_CONTIGUOUS flag
[ Upstream commit dd65a941f6 ]

dma_alloc_*() buffers might be exposed to userspace via mmap() call, so
they should be cleared on allocation. In case of IOMMU-based dma-mapping
implementation such buffer clearing was missing in the code path for
DMA_ATTR_FORCE_CONTIGUOUS flag handling, because dma_alloc_from_contiguous()
doesn't honor __GFP_ZERO flag. This patch fixes this issue. For more
information on clearing buffers allocated by dma_alloc_* functions,
see commit 6829e274a6 ("arm64: dma-mapping: always clear allocated
buffers").

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
