Mario Peter cea2a1257a usb: chipidea: udc: fix DMA and SG cleanup in _ep_nuke()
The ChipIdea UDC driver can encounter "not page aligned sg buffer"
errors when a USB device is reconnected after being disconnected
during an active transfer. This occurs because _ep_nuke() returns
requests to the gadget layer without properly unmapping DMA buffers
or cleaning up scatter-gather bounce buffers.

Root cause:
When a disconnect happens during a multi-segment DMA transfer, the
request's num_mapped_sgs field and sgt.sgl pointer remain set with
stale values. The request is returned to the gadget driver with status
-ESHUTDOWN but still has active DMA state. If the gadget driver reuses
this request on reconnect without reinitializing it, the stale DMA
state causes _hardware_enqueue() to skip DMA mapping (seeing non-zero
num_mapped_sgs) and attempt to use freed/invalid DMA addresses,
leading to alignment errors and potential memory corruption.

The normal completion path via _hardware_dequeue() properly calls
usb_gadget_unmap_request_by_dev() and sglist_do_debounce() before
returning the request. The _ep_nuke() path must do the same cleanup
to ensure requests are returned in a clean, reusable state.

Fix:
Add DMA unmapping and bounce buffer cleanup to _ep_nuke() to mirror
the cleanup sequence in _hardware_dequeue():
- Call usb_gadget_unmap_request_by_dev() if num_mapped_sgs is set
- Call sglist_do_debounce() with copy=false if bounce buffer exists

This ensures that when requests are returned due to endpoint shutdown,
they don't retain stale DMA mappings. The 'false' parameter to
sglist_do_debounce() prevents copying data back (appropriate for
shutdown path where transfer was aborted).

Linux kernel
============

The Linux kernel is the core of any Linux operating system. It manages hardware,
system resources, and provides the fundamental services for all other software.

Quick Start
-----------

* Report a bug: See Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst
* Get the latest kernel: https://kernel.org
* Build the kernel: See Documentation/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.rst
* Join the community: https://lore.kernel.org/

Essential Documentation
-----------------------

All users should be familiar with:

* Building requirements: Documentation/process/changes.rst
* Code of Conduct: Documentation/process/code-of-conduct.rst
* License: See COPYING

Documentation can be built with make htmldocs or viewed online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
