[alsa-devel] [PATCH 18/18] ALSA: pass struct device to DMA API functions

Fri Feb 1 09:48:01 CET 2019


The DMA API generally relies on a struct device to work properly, and
only barely works without one for legacy reasons.  Pass the easily
available struct device from the platform_device to remedy this.

Also use GFP_KERNEL instead of GFP_USER as the gfp_t for the memory
allocation, as we should treat this allocation as a normal kernel one.
