The reasons why dma_free_attrs() should not be called from IRQ context are not necessarily obvious and somewhat buried in the development history, so let's start by documenting the warning itself to help anyone who does happen to hit it and wonder what the deal is. However, this check turns out to be slightly over-restrictive for the way that per-device memory has been spliced into the general API, since for that case we know that dma_declare_coherent_memory() has created an appropriate CPU mapping for the entire area and nothing dynamic should be happening. Given that the usage model for per-device memory is often more akin to streaming DMA than 'real' coherent DMA (e.g. allocating and freeing space to copy short-lived packets in and out), it is also somewhat more reasonable for those operations to happen in IRQ handlers for such devices. Therefore, let's move the irqs_disabled() check down past the per-device area hook, so that that gets a chance to resolve the request before we reach definite "you're doing it wrong" territory.

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.
