Yeah,  
Dma buffer must be allocated by kmalloc,

But the modules I list should can all be changed to use
vmalloc, because the buffer is only used by software,
Not by any hardware .

Are you sure about that?  The USB gadget driver needs DMA memory from
what I can tell, have you tried your change out on a system that does
not allow the USB controller to access non-DMA memory?

And I agree with Steve, just fix the individual drivers, don't do a
"hidden" change of where the memory is allocated from, that's not a good
idea and will cause problems later.
