Aw: BUG: Wrong dma queue handling in ixp4 driver

Hi,

maybe I miss something, but the ixp4 ethernet driver seems to handle dma pools 
in a wrong way: In init_queues() it creates a dma pool for descriptors and then
 only allocates a single descriptor from this pool. The author seems to assume the whole
table has been allocated already, since after that the complete pool size is zeroed:
Sorry, I indeed missed something. The allocation is correct. A pool is not required, though,
since only one chunk is allocated.
