Jia-Ju Bai cbbb64f62a atm: idt77252: avoid accessing the data mapped to streaming DMA
In queue_skb(), skb->data is mapped to streaming DMA on line 850:
  dma_map_single(..., skb->data, ...);

Then skb->data is accessed on lines 862 and 863:
  tbd->word_4 = (skb->data[0] << 24) | (skb->data[1] << 16) |
           (skb->data[2] <<  8) | (skb->data[3] <<  0);
and on lines 893 and 894:
  tbd->word_4 = (skb->data[0] << 24) | (skb->data[1] << 16) |
           (skb->data[2] <<  8) | (skb->data[3] <<  0);

These accesses may cause data inconsistency between CPU cache and
hardware.

To fix this problem, the calculation result of skb->data is stored in a
local variable before DMA mapping, and then the driver accesses this
local variable instead of skb->data.

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
