Hi Andrew, Andy,

My desktop setup has a problem compiling older kernels for rk3066 MK808 to verify.

Are you able to bisect/compile for rk3036 before this one:

====
commit bc0e610a6eb0d46e4123fafdbe5e6141d9fff3be (HEAD -> test1)
Author: Jianglei Nie <niejianglei2021@xxxxxxx>
Date: Wed Mar 9 20:18:24 2022 +0800

net: arc_emac: Fix use after free in arc_mdio_probe()

====
This is the oldest EMAC related checkout I can compile.
At that patch it still gives this warnings in the kernel log.

[ 16.678988] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 16.684189] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 809 at kernel/dma/mapping.c:151 dma_map_page_attrs+0x2b4/0x358

The driver was maintained on auto pilot recent years without a check by Rockchip users somehow.
Currently I don't know where and when this was introduced.
Please advise how to move forward. Should we just mark it net-next?

Johan
