There is another function like this called pl022_dma_probe()
that has the same allocation, and it gets freed in the same place.

It's probably worth changing this into something different, but
I felt that it didn't belong into this patch. I was also not
sure if the best option would be dmam_alloc_coherent, dev_kzalloc,
or __get_free_page.
