Yes, I have looked at the mm/dmapool.c API. AFAIK this is for DMA
coherent memory (see use of dma_alloc_coherent/dma_free_coherent).
What we are doing is "streaming" DMA memory, when processing the RX
ring.
(NIC are only using DMA coherent memory for the descriptors, which are
allocated on driver init)
