This warning indicates that the driver failed to check dma mapping error
on a buffer returned by dma_map_single() or dma_map_page() call. Looking
at the the area where mapping is done, it appears it does call
dma_mapping_error(). It does allocate several buffers in a loop, so it
not obvious to me why the warning is showing up. I will follow-up on
this to make sure it is not a false alarm, before I get the driver team
involved. Thanks for reporting it.
