Subject: Re: dma_ops->map_page == NULL

Message-ID: <4A5368C7.9020202@marel.com> (raw)

Yes the device pointer was invalid.

I was passing the of_device pointer instead of
the address of of_device->dev.

But I am sure this was working (passing of_device pointer) with
earlier kernels.

Thanks for the help.
