[ Upstream commit 595e802e53f24642a145cf7f3e4ac9afab4c21ec ] The DPAA HW requires that at least 256 bytes from the start of the first scatter-gather table entry are allocated and accessible. The hardware reads the maximum size the table can have in one access, thus requiring that the allocation and mapping to be done for the maximum size of 256B even if there is a smaller number of entries in the table.

These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
