[PATCH v2 3/5] g_NCR5380: Limit sg_tablesize to avoid PDMA read overruns on DTC436

From: Finn Thain
Date: Sat Jun 24 2017 - 02:38:27 EST


Back-to-back DMA receive transfers can lose a byte due to a 5380
flaw. This makes scatter-receive difficult or impossible on affected
hardware, so limit the scatter/gather tablesize to 1.
