Subjectregression in ath10k dma allocation
Date
Hello all,

within the current development cycle i noted the ath10k driver failing
to setup:

[    3.185660] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: failed to alloc CE dest ring 1: -12
[    3.185664] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: failed to allocate copy engine
pipe 1: -12
[    3.185667] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: failed to allocate copy engine
pipes: -12
[    3.185669] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: failed to setup resource: -12
[    3.185692] ath10k_pci: probe of 0000:02:00.0 failed with error -12

the actual failure comes from [1] and indeed bisecting brought me to a
related commit "dma-contiguous: add dma_{alloc,free}_contiguous()
helpers" [2]. Reverting the commit fixes the problem, yet this might
just be the driver abusing the dma infrastructure, so hopefully someone
can have a look at it, as i'm not familiar with the code!
