Hi, Dear reviewers

The 'offset' data member of the 'struct scatterlist' denotes the offset
into a SG entry in bytes. The sg_dma_len() macro could be used to get
lengths of SG entries, those lengths are expected to be CPU page size
aligned. Since, at least for now, we call drm_prime_pages_to_sg() to
convert our various page array into an SG list. We pass the number of
CPU page as the third argoument, to tell the size of the backing memory
of GEM buffer object.

drm_prime_pages_to_sg() call sg_alloc_table_from_pages_segment() do the
work, sg_alloc_table_from_pages_segment() always hardcode the Offset to
ZERO. The sizes of *all* SG enties will be a multiple of CPU page size,
that is multiple of PAGE_SIZE.

If the GPU want to map/unmap a bigger page partially, we should use
'sg_dma_address(sg) + sg->offset' to calculate the destination DMA
address, and the size to be map/unmap is 'sg_dma_len(sg) - sg->offset'.

While the current implement is wrong, but since the 'sg->offset' is
alway equal to 0, drm/etnaviv works in practice by good luck. Fix this,
to make it looks right at least from the perspective of concept.

while at it, always fix the absue types:


'absue' -> 'abuse'


By the way, sorry I'm just receive your message from my Thunderbird client.


I sent those two patch first, then I run my Thunderbird client.

Not seeing that you have already merged part of my patch, then there will be
merge conflict I guess.

I think I could wait the next round and respin my patch.


- sg_dma_address returns DMA address, the type is dma_addr_t, not
   the phys_addr_t, for VRAM there may have another translation between
   the bus address and the final physical address of VRAM or carved out
   RAM.

- The type of sg_dma_len(sg) return is unsigned int, not the size_t.
   Avoid hint the compiler to do unnecessary integer promotion.
