/**
 * struct comedi_buf_map - Describe pages in a COMEDI buffer
 * @dma_hw_dev: Low-level hardware &struct device pointer copied from the
 *	COMEDI device's hw_dev member.
 * @page_list: Pointer to array of &struct comedi_buf_page, one for each
 *	page in the buffer.
 * @n_pages: Number of pages in the buffer.
 * @dma_dir: DMA direction used to allocate pages of DMA coherent memory,
 *	or %DMA_NONE if pages allocated from regular memory.
 * @refcount: &struct kref reference counter used to free the buffer.
 *
 * A COMEDI data buffer is allocated as individual pages, either in
 * conventional memory or DMA coherent memory, depending on the attached,
 * low-level hardware device.  (The buffer pages also get mapped into the
 * kernel's contiguous virtual address space pointed to by the 'prealloc_buf'
 * member of &struct comedi_async.)
 *
 * The buffer is normally freed when the COMEDI device is detached from the
 * low-level driver (which may happen due to device removal), but if it happens
 * to be mmapped at the time, the pages cannot be freed until the buffer has
 * been munmapped.  That is what the reference counter is for.  (The virtual
 * address space pointed by 'prealloc_buf' is freed when the COMEDI device is
 * detached.)
