Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mmc: jz4740: Apply DMA engine limits to maximum segment size

Do what is done in other DMA-enabled MMC host drivers (cf. host/mmci.c) and

limit the maximum segment size based on the DMA engine's capabilities. This

is needed to avoid warnings like the following with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG=y.
