[2.6.31-rc4] ftdi_usb maps memory from stack...

From: Daniel J Blueman
Date: Mon Jul 27 2009 - 18:17:27 EST


With DMA debugging enabled, I see a warning when the FTDI USB-serial
driver loads [1] using a non-DMAable address.

I can get a disassembly of some of the stack frames to identify the
exact call-sites etc, if that helps anyone?

Thanks,
Daniel
