[PATCH 1/2] drm/msm: gpu: don't abuse dma_alloc for non-DMA allocations

[Arnd Bergmann]

In zap_shader_load_mdt(), we pass a pointer to a phys_addr_t
into dmam_alloc_coherent, which the compiler warns about:

drivers/gpu/drm/msm/adreno/a5xx_gpu.c: In function 'zap_shader_load_mdt':
drivers/gpu/drm/msm/adreno/a5xx_gpu.c:54:50: error: passing argument 3 of 'dmam_alloc_coherent' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]

The returned DMA address is later passed on to a function that
takes a phys_addr_t, so it's clearly wrong to use the DMA
mapping interface here: the memory may be uncached, or the
address may be completely wrong if there is an IOMMU connected
to the device.

My interpretation is that using dmam_alloc_coherent() had two
purposes:

 a) get a chunk of consecutive memory that may be larger than
    the limit for kmalloc()

 b) use the devres infrastructure to simplify the unwinding
    in the error case.

I think ideally we'd use a devres-based version of
alloc_pages_exact() here, but since that doesn't exist,
let's use devm_get_free_pages() instead. This wastes a little
memory as the size gets rounded up to a power of two, but
is otherwise harmless. If we want to save memory here, calling
devm_free_pages() to release the memory once it is no longer
needed is probably better anyway.
