Marty reported a memory leakage introduced by commit 3aaabbf1c39e
("lib/dma-debug.c: fix incorrect pfn calculation"). Fix it
by checking the virtual address before allocating the entry.

Oops, seems I failed to look closely enough at the surrounding diff context when I reviewed the original patch... :(

This patch also use virt_addr_valid() instead of virt_to_page()
to check if a virtual address is linear.

That's an area I happen to have been looking at lately and now understand a lot better, so fully agreed there as well.

Acked-by: Robin Murphy <robin.murphy@xxxxxxx>

Maybe also worth having a proper Fixes: tag instead of just naming the commit in prose?

Thanks,
Robin.
