When the code disables itself at runtime this is most likely because it ran
out of dma_debug_entries and was unable to allocate more on-demand. 65536
entries are preallocated at boot - if this is too low for you boot with
-'dma_debug_entries=<your_desired_number>' to overwrite the default.
+'dma_debug_entries=<your_desired_number>' to overwrite the default. The
+code will print to the kernel log each time it has dynamically allocated
+as many entries as were initially preallocated. This is to indicate that a
+larger preallocation size may be appropriate, or if it happens continually
+that a driver may be leaking mappings.
