Now that all the code that accesses the Comedi buffer data does so page-by-page, using the `virt_addr` member of `struct comedi_buf_page` to point to the data of each page, do not linearly map the buffer into vmalloc address space (pointed to by the `prealloc_buf` member of `struct comedi_async`). That was only done for convenience, but was not done for those drivers that need a DMA coherent buffer, which is allocated in a single chunk. Remove the `prealloc_buf` member as it is no longer used.

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 reStructuredText 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.
