Since [1], dma_alloc_coherent() does not accept requests for GFP_COMP
anymore, even on archs that may be able to fulfill this. Functionality that
relied on the receive buffer being a compound page broke at that point:
The SMC-D protocol, that utilizes the ism device driver, passes receive
buffers to the splice processor in a struct splice_pipe_desc with a
single entry list of struct pages. As the buffer is no longer a compound
page, the splice processor now rejects requests to handle more than a
page worth of data.
Replace dma_alloc_coherent() and allocate a buffer with folio_alloc and
create a DMA map for it with dma_map_page(). Since only receive buffers
on ISM devices use DMA, qualify the mapping as FROM_DEVICE.
Since ISM devices are available on arch s390, only and on that arch all
DMA is coherent, there is no need to introduce and export some kind of
dma_sync_to_cpu() method to be called by the SMC-D protocol layer.
Analogously, replace dma_free_coherent by a two step dma_unmap_page,
then folio_put to free the receive buffer.

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 reStructuredText 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.
