re: the dma-direct code commit below

I have bisected the kernel to isolate a PCI board problem on my AMD 
x86-64 ASROCK system. The board worked at (Fedora kernel) 4.18.16 but 
stopped when moving to (Fedora kernel) 5.0. I then used 
(git/torvalds/linux) 4.20-rc4 or so to locate the fault via bisect.

I now have two kernels, good/bad, that straddle the commit.

I was asked to try v5.2 just in case it was fixed; I compiled it and the 
fault appears to still be present.

Simply, mpeg video does not stream from board; no errors, but no video.

My work is documented at
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408004

including dmesgs, lspcis, and (second) git bisect log.

Could I please ask if and where I should submit a bug? and am willing to 
assist if I can.

Thank You!

     dma-direct: merge swiotlb_dma_ops into the dma_direct code

     While the dma-direct code is (relatively) clean and simple we
     actually have to use the swiotlb ops for the mapping on many
     architectures due to devices with addressing limits.  Instead
     of keeping two implementations around this commit allows the
     dma-direct implementation to call the swiotlb bounce buffering
     functions and thus share the guts of the mapping implementation.
     This also simplified the dma-mapping setup on a few architectures
     where we don't have to differenciate which implementation to use.
