+Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: properly align buffers on certain platforms with 64
+ bit DMA
+
+Systems with 64 bit DMA at least partially require buffers to be used
+for DMA to be 8-byte-aligned. One example is Amlogic Meson GX.
+Switching the MMC/SDIO driver for this platform to SG DMA mode
+resulted in problems due to unaligned buffers.
+
+Fortunately the brcmfmac driver has a global define for the alignment.
+Changing it to 8 fixed the issues with Meson GX.
