The patch titled
     Subject: dma-debug: fix overlap detection
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     dma-debug-fix-overlap-detection.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: dma-debug: fix overlap detection

0abdd7a81b7e ("dma-debug: introduce debug_dma_assert_idle()") was reworked
to expand the overlap counter to the full range expressable by 3 tag bits,
but it has a thinko in treating the overlap counter as a pure reference
count for the entry.

Instead of deleting when the reference-count drops to zero, we need to
delete when the overlap-count drops below zero.  Also, when detecting
overflow we can just test the overlap-count > MAX rather than applying
special meaning to 0.

Regression report available here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=139073373932386&w=2

This patch, now tested on the original net_dma case, sees the expected
handful of reports before the eventual data corruption occurs.
