8d7f62e6a7 Documentation DMA-API-HOWTO.txt Add dma mapping error check usage examples 
Enhance the document to discuss the importance of dma
mapping error checks after dma_map_single() and
dma_map_page() calls. Also added usage examples that include
unmap examples in error paths when dma mapping error is
returned.  Includes correct and incorrect usages to high
light some common mistakes in error paths especially when
dma mapping fails when more than one dma mapping call is
made.

ce00f7feb0 Documentation: DMA-API-HOWTO.txt: rename ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN 
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN was renamed to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (the commit
a6eb9fe105).

ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN must be defined instead of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to
ensure that kmalloc'ed buffer is DMA-safe.

4ae9ca825e Documentation: move the error handling to the better place in DMA-API-HOWTO 
Handing DMA mapping errors is essential.  Let's put it in the more

Now we have <asm-generic/scatterlist.h>.  Architectures should use it
instead of inventing the own scatterlist struct.  Let's update the
