From: Takashi Iwai tiwai@suse.de Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2018 19:05:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] swiotlb: fix unexpected swiotlb_alloc_coherent failures
The code refactoring by commit 0176adb00406 ("swiotlb: refactor coherent buffer allocation") made swiotlb_alloc_buffer almost always failing due to a thinko: namely, the function evaluates the dma_coherent_ok call incorrectly and dealing as if it's invalid. This ends up with weird errors like iwlwifi probe failure or amdgpu screen flickering.
This patch corrects the logic error.
