usb: core: buffer: smallest buffer should start at ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN
commit 5efd2ea8c9f4f12916ffc8ba636792ce052f6911 upstream. the following error pops up during "testusb -a -t 10" | musb-hdrc musb-hdrc.1.auto: dma_pool_free buffer-128, f134e000/be842000 (bad dma) hcd_buffer_create() creates a few buffers, the smallest has 32 bytes of size. ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is set to 64 bytes. This combo results in hcd_buffer_alloc() returning memory which is 32 bytes aligned and it might by identified by buffer_offset() as another buffer. This means the buffer which is on a 32 byte boundary will not get freed, instead it tries to free another buffer with the error message. This patch fixes the issue by creating the smallest DMA buffer with the size of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN (or 32 in case ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is smaller). This might be 32, 64 or even 128 bytes. The next three pools will have the size 128, 512 and 2048. In case the smallest pool is 128 bytes then we have only three pools instead of four (and zero the first entry in the array). The last pool size is always 2048 bytes which is the assumed PAGE_SIZE / 2 of 4096. I doubt it makes sense to continue using PAGE_SIZE / 2 where we would end up with 8KiB buffer in case we have 16KiB pages. Instead I think it makes sense to have a common size(s) and extend them if there is need to. There is a BUILD_BUG_ON() now in case someone has a minalign of more than 128 bytes.
