[PATCH 5.5 087/399] ath10k: Correct the DMA direction for management tx buffers

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Feb 21 2020 - 03:48:26 EST


From: Rakesh Pillai <pillair@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 6ba8b3b6bd772f575f7736c8fd893c6981fcce16 ]

The management packets, send to firmware via WMI, are
mapped using the direction DMA_TO_DEVICE. Currently in
case of wmi cleanup, these buffers are being unmapped
using an incorrect DMA direction. This can cause unwanted
behavior when the host driver is handling a restart
of the wlan firmware.

We might see a trace like below

Fix the incorrect DMA direction during the wmi
management tx buffer cleanup.
