Hi,

sorry for the noise, I have messed up my https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/ usage.
I thought I was looking at the 3.16.83 branch, but I was not.

The patch looks good to me.

Hi,

I don't think that this one is applicable to 3.16.x

The remove function and the error handling path of the probe function both use 'dma_free_wc'.
I've not look in details, but it looks consistent and the patch would not apply as-is anyway.

just my 2c.

3.16.84-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 3c911fe799d1c338d94b78e7182ad452c37af897 upstream.

In the probe function, some resources are allocated using 'dma_alloc_wc()',
they should be released with 'dma_free_wc()', not 'dma_free_coherent()'.

We already use 'dma_free_wc()' in the remove function, but not in the
error handling path of the probe function.

Also, remove a useless 'PAGE_ALIGN()'. 'info->fix.smem_len' is already
PAGE_ALIGNed.
