[RFC PATCH 1/1] dma-debug: fix check_for_illegal_area() in debug_dma_map_sg()

[Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer@linux.ibm.com>]

The following warning occurred sporadically on s390:
DMA-API: nvme 0006:00:00.0: device driver maps memory from kernel text or rodata [addr=0000000048cc5e2f] [len=131072]
WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 825 at kernel/dma/debug.c:1083 check_for_illegal_area+0xa8/0x138

It is a false-positive warning, due to a broken logic in debug_dma_map_sg().
check_for_illegal_area() should check for overlay of sg elements with kernel
text or rodata. It is called with sg_dma_len(s) instead of s->length as
parameter. After the call to ->map_sg(), sg_dma_len() contains the length
of possibly combined sg elements in the DMA address space, and not the
individual sg element length, which would be s->length.

The check will then use the kernel start address of an sg element, and add
the DMA length for overlap check, which can result in the false-positive
warning because the DMA length can be larger than the actual single sg
element length in kernel address space.

In addition, the call to check_for_illegal_area() happens in the iteration
over mapped_ents, which will not include all individual sg elements if
any of them were combined in ->map_sg().

Fix this by using s->length instead of sg_dma_len(s). Also put the call to
check_for_illegal_area() in a separate loop, iterating over all the
individual sg elements ("nents" instead of "mapped_ents").
