dma_debug_init() is called by architecture specific code at different
levels, but typically as a fs_initcall due to the debugfs
initialization. Some platforms may have early callers of the DMA-API,
running prior to the fs_initcall() level, which is not much of an issue
unless CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is set. Whe the DMA-API debugging facilities
are turned on a caller will go through:
debug_dma_map_{single,page}
-> dma_mapping_error (inline function usually)
-> debug_dma_mapping_error
-> get_hash_bucket
Calling get_hash_bucket() returns a valid hash value since we hash on
high bits of the dma_addr cookie, but we will grab an unitialized
spinlock, which typically won't crash but produce a warning, the real
crash will however happen during the bucket list traversal because the
list has not been initialized yet.
An obvious solution is of course to move some of the offenders to run
after the fs_initcall level, but since this might not always be an
option, we add a flag "dma_debug_initialized" which is set to false by
default, and set to true once dma_debug_init() has had a chance to run.
The dma_debug_disabled() helper function previously introduced just
needs to check for dma_debug_initialized to allow the caller to proceed
or not.
