cdns3 device required DMA coherent buffer to perform operations. So dma_alloc_noncoherent will not help here. Also all gadget classes(except g_ether) use kmalloc to allocated request buffer, and device driver uses usb_gadget_map_request_by_dev to map the request buffer. Similar approach is used to allocate aligned buffer. Thanks, Sanket
