3.16.76-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit ffd9a1ba9fdb7f2bd1d1ad9b9243d34e96756ba2 upstream. DMA got broken a while back in two different ways: 1) a change in the behaviour of disable_irq() to wait for the interrupt to finish executing causes us to deadlock at the end of DMA. 2) a change to avoid modifying the scatterlist left the first transfer uninitialised. DMA is only used with expansion cards, so has gone unnoticed.
