wifi: ath11k: Use dma_alloc_noncoherent for rx_tid buffer allocation

Browse source

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.
