The add_bounce_page() can be called from _bus_dmamap_load_phys().
Client virtual address is zero (not valid) in that case. So, client

is always valid.

The only user of BUS_DMA_KEEP_PG_OFFSET in the system is USB.  If the
flag didn't exist, we could do bouncing with a whole lot more
efficiency, at least in the ARM world.  I wonder if it would be possible
to just eliminate the flag (and of course, USB's need for it, which I
fully admit I don't understand even a little bit).


Hi,

USB (EHCI/UHCI/OHCI) needs this flag when computing scatter/gather
lists. Please ensure it works like expected. The good news is XHCI needs
it less than the EHCI.

Ian: The patch looks good - will you commit it?


The reason is that the EHCI/UHCI/OHCI doesn't have separate length fields for each data chunk and somtimes use the "0x1000 - (addr & 0xFFF)" formula to compute how many bytes are left of a transfer when a transfer wraps around 0x1000. Thank you for you understanding this is not a USB problem in general.
