s3c2410_dma_enqueue is called from dma_bufferdone in I2S driver,
which in turn is called from DMA irq handler.
In that situation s3c2410_dma_enqueue calls kzalloc with GFP_KERNEL flag.
Not sure, if we shud change s3c2410_dma_enqueue itself or the I2S
cpu-drivers to call it from scheduled work after the dma_bufferdone
callback.
For the time being i am using .......
