lib/genalloc.c: add check gen_pool_dma_alloc() if dma pointer is not NULL
In the gen_pool_dma_alloc() the dma pointer can be NULL and while assigning gen_pool_virt_to_phys(pool, vaddr) to dma caused the following crash on da850 evm: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 Internal error: Oops: 805 [#1] PREEMPT ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper Tainted: G W 3.13.0-rc1-00001-g0609e45-dirty #5 task: c4830000 ti: c4832000 task.ti: c4832000 PC is at gen_pool_dma_alloc+0x30/0x3c LR is at gen_pool_virt_to_phys+0x74/0x80 Process swapper, call trace: gen_pool_dma_alloc+0x30/0x3c davinci_pm_probe+0x40/0xa8 platform_drv_probe+0x1c/0x4c driver_probe_device+0x98/0x22c __driver_attach+0x8c/0x90 bus_for_each_dev+0x6c/0x8c bus_add_driver+0x124/0x1d4 driver_register+0x78/0xf8 platform_driver_probe+0x20/0xa4 davinci_init_late+0xc/0x14 init_machine_late+0x1c/0x28 do_one_initcall+0x34/0x15c kernel_init_freeable+0xe4/0x1ac kernel_init+0x8/0xec This patch fixes the above.
