Following to the addition of non-contiguous pages, this patch adds the new contiguous non-coherent page allocation to the standard memalloc helper. Like the previous non-contig type, this non-coherent type is also directional and requires the explicit sync, too. Hence the driver using this type of buffer may need to set SNDRV_PCM_INFO_EXPLICIT_SYNC flag to the PCM hardware.info as well, unless it's set up in the managed mode.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
