hcd_buffer_free uses a combination of dma pools and dma coherent APIs:
...
for (i = 0; i < HCD_BUFFER_POOLS; i++) {
if (size <= pool_max[i]) {
dma_pool_free(hcd->pool[i], addr, dma);
return;
}
}
dma_free_coherent(hcd->self.sysdev, size, addr, dma);
Alan, can dma_free_coherent be delayed to a point when IRQs are enabled?
