SubjectRe: [PATCH v2] dma-debug: New interfaces to debug dma mapping errors
Hi Shuah,

the patch looks better then the older versions. It comes closer to a
merge, but I see one issue here:

It is problematic that the DMA debug code can no longer call
dma_mapping_error because of this. How about adding a special version of
that function which does no checking and use it in the DMA debug code
instead?
