Here it should be when CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE_RAID is NOT defined, 
unmap_pool[] is just 1
element in size,  and the function "__get_unmap_pool" will access 
outside of the array unmap_pool[]
in case orders of 2..8 and returns an invalid address, and I encountered 
the issue.

I think the patch is needed to avoid visiting outside of the array 
unmap_pool[] if CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE_RAID is NOT defined.

Thanks
