Joe Jin 7250f422da xen-swiotlb: use actually allocated size on check physical continuous
xen_swiotlb_{alloc,free}_coherent() allocate/free memory based on the
order of the pages and not size argument (bytes). This is inconsistent with
range_straddles_page_boundary and memset which use the 'size' value,
which may lead to not exchanging memory with Xen (range_straddles_page_boundary()
returned true). And then the call to xen_swiotlb_free_coherent() would
actually try to exchange the memory with Xen, leading to the kernel
hitting an BUG (as the hypercall returned an error).

This patch fixes it by making the 'size' variable be of the same size
as the amount of memory allocated.

README

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
