[PATCH 0/5] dmaengine: Fix memory leak amongs virt-dma users

[Peter Ujfalusi]

Hi,

Due to the implementation of some of the drivers using virt-dma they leak memory
by design.
All it takes is to stop a transfer which is not yet completed, this includes
cyclic (audio) channels also.
These drivers tend to remove the vdesc->node from the virt-dma lists when they
start the transfer. In terminate all vchan_get_all_descriptors() will not find
the transfer which is still running (not in any of the lists) so the free_desc
callback will not be called on them leaving us with memory leak.

There are other drivers leaking memory IMHO, but I was not sure how to fix them:
sun6i-dma,
sa11x0-dma,
k3dma

Others are already doing something to prevent the leak by either directly
freeing the desc or by adding back the vdesc->node to a list.

Regards,
Peter
