[PATCH v2] dma-pool: Fix too large DMA pools on medium systems

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Mon Jun 08 2020 - 09:22:24 EST


On systems with at least 32 MiB, but less than 32 GiB of RAM, the DMA
memory pools are much larger than intended (e.g. 2 MiB instead of 128
KiB on a 256 MiB system).

Fix this by correcting the calculation of the number of GiBs of RAM in
the system. Invert the order of the min/max operations, to keep on
calculating in pages until the last step, which aids readability.

Fixes: 1d659236fb43c4d2 ("dma-pool: scale the default DMA coherent pool size with memory capacity")

v2:
- Improve readability:
- Divide by (SZ_1G / SZ_128K) instead of using a shift,
- Invert min/max order to keep calculating in pages until the last
step.
