[PATCH v2] swiotlb: check alloc_size before the allocation of a new memory pool

[Peng Zhang]

From: ZhangPeng <zhangpeng362@huawei.com>

The allocation request for swiotlb contiguous memory greater than
128*2KB cannot be fulfilled because it exceeds the maximum contiguous
memory limit. If the swiotlb memory we allocate is larger than 128*2KB,
swiotlb_find_slots() will still schedule the allocation of a new memory
pool, which will increase memory overhead.

Fix it by adding a check with alloc_size no more than 128*2KB before
scheduling the allocation of a new memory pool in swiotlb_find_slots().
