This looks like a bogus test, you've already allocated enough space for
the pseudo_palette and will have bailed out on the kmalloc() failing well
before this. You also don't have any error handling for fbi->palette_cpu,
which is presumably what you intended to do here.

You're also missing a dma_free_coherent() here.

What in the name of all that is holy are you doing here? If you need to
have your platform deal with virtual address allocation and freeing then
you should pass in callbacks for that and hide the instrumentation
details there. Presently this is tying you down to an alloc_pages_exact()
interface buried in the board setup, which isn't going to mesh well with
other platforms that may wish to go about this an alternate way (like
memblock reservations).

Uhm, no. If this is only used in this driver then just make it static.
Given that you are using the driver model here though and could
theoretically support multiple rop engines, you're much better off making
this private data and burying it under the appropriate per-device data
structures.

While I admire your optimism in your hardware, experience suggests you
really want a timeout here. You may also wish to insert a cpu_relax()
here.
