+dma-debug interface debug_dma_mapping_error() to debug drivers that fail
+to check dma mapping errors on addresses returned by dma_map_single() and
+dma_map_page() interfaces. This interface clears a flag set by
+debug_dma_map_page() to indicate that dma_mapping_error() has been called by
+the driver. When driver does unmap, debug_dma_unmap() checks the flag and if
+this flag is still set, prints warning message that includes call trace that
+leads up to the unmap. This interface can be called from dma_mapping_error()
+routines to enable dma mapping error check debugging.
