Currently, the driver allocates cacheable DMA buffers for the rx_tid structure using kzalloc() and dma_map_single(). These buffers are long-lived and can persist for the lifetime of the peer, which is not advisable. Instead of using kzalloc() and dma_map_single() for allocating cacheable DMA buffers, utilize the dma_alloc_noncoherent() helper for the allocation of long-lived cacheable DMA buffers, such as the peer's rx_tid. Since dma_alloc_noncoherent() returns unaligned physical and virtual addresses, align them internally before use within the driver. This ensures proper allocation of non-coherent memory through the kernel helper.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
