This is an enhancement for the SG-style page handling in vmalloc buffer handler to calculate the continuous pages. When snd_sgbuf_get_chunk_size() is called for a vmalloc buffer, currently we return only the size that fits into a single page. However, this API call is rather supposed for obtaining the continuous pages and most of vmalloc or noncontig buffers do have lots of continuous pages indeed. So, in this patch, the callback now calculates the possibly continuous pages up to the given size limit. Note that the end address in the function is calculated from the last byte, hence it's one byte shorter. This is because ofs + size can be above the actual buffer size boundary. Until now, this feature isn't really used, but it'll become useful in a later patch that adds the non-contiguous buffer type that shares the same callback function as vmalloc.

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 Restructured Text 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.
