[PATCH]: x86_64, audio: Fix system panic when DMA > 40 bits

From: Mike Travis
Date: Wed May 01 2013 - 15:05:19 EST


The audio driver mistakenly allows 64 bit addresses to be created for
the audio driver on Nvidia GPUs. Unfortunately, the hardware normally
only supports up to 40 bits of DMA. This can cause system panics as
well as misdirected data when the address is > 40 bits as the upper
part the address is truncated.
