[PATCH 2/2] USB: hcd: only unmap the actual completed DMA buffer

From: Ming Lei
Date: Mon May 27 2013 - 12:13:49 EST


This patch only unmap the actual completed DMA buffer instead of
the whole transfer buffer.

It is common to see only part of DMA transfer is completed, especially
in case of DMA_FROM_DEVICE because the length of incoming traffic often
is unknown before submitting URB, so this patch may improve USB
DMA unmapping which runs in hard irq context.

The patch has been tested on ARMv7(Pandaboard), and it is observed that
at average ~25us is saved about ehci interrupt handling on below usbnet
test case:

- Pandaboard: IP address is IP_A
- on one x86 box, run below command:
#ping -f -s 1472 IP_A
- compute ehci interrupt handling time on Pandaboard during ping
test
