This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

tty: serial: imx: setup the correct sg entry for tx dma

to my tty git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git in the tty-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

There has oops as below happen on i.MX8MP EVK platform that has 6G bytes DDR memory.

when (xmit->tail < xmit->head) && (xmit->head == 0), it setups one sg entry with sg->length is zero: sg_set_buf(sgl + 1, xmit->buf, xmit->head);

if xmit->buf is allocated from >4G address space, and SDMA only support <4G address space, then dma_map_sg() will call swiotlb_map() to do bounce buffer copying and mapping.

But swiotlb_map() don't allow sg entry's length is zero, otherwise report BUG_ON().

So the patch is to correct the tx DMA scatter list.
