If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai commit dfef01e150824b0e6da750cacda8958188d29aea upstream. snd_dma_alloc_pages_fallback() tries to allocate pages again when the allocation fails with reduced size. But the first try actually *increases* the size to power-of-two, which may give back a larger chunk than the requested size. This confuses the callers, e.g. sgbuf assumes that the size is equal or less, and it may result in a bad loop due to the underflow and eventually lead to Oops. The code of this function seems incorrectly assuming the usage of get_order(). We need to decrease at first, then align to power-of-two.
