Nicolas Pitre 43377453af [ARM] introduce dma_cache_maint_page()
This is a helper to be used by the DMA mapping API to handle cache
maintenance for memory identified by a page structure instead of a
virtual address.  Those pages may or may not be highmem pages, and
when they're highmem pages, they may or may not be virtually mapped.
When they're not mapped then there is no L1 cache to worry about. But
even in that case the L2 cache must be processed since unmapped highmem
pages can still be L2 cached.

Russell King 1522ac3ec9 [ARM] Fix virtual to physical translation macro corner cases
The current use of these macros works well when the conversion is
entirely linear.  In this case, we can be assured that the following
holds true:

	__va(p + s) - s = __va(p)

However, this is not always the case, especially when there is a
non-linear conversion (eg, when there is a 3.5GB hole in memory.)
In this case, if 's' is the size of the region (eg, PAGE_SIZE) and
'p' is the final page, the above is most definitely not true.

So, we must ensure that __va() and __pa() are only used with valid
kernel direct mapped RAM addresses.  This patch tweaks the code
to achieve this.

David Howells 9c93af1ede NOMMU: Rename ARM's struct vm_region
Rename ARM's struct vm_region so that I can introduce my own global version
for NOMMU.  It's feasible that the ARM version may wish to use my global one
instead.

The NOMMU vm_region struct defines areas of the physical memory map that are
under mmap.  This may include chunks of RAM or regions of memory mapped
devices, such as flash.  It is also used to retain copies of file content so
that shareable private memory mappings of files can be made.  As such, it may
be compatible with what is described in the banner comment for ARM's vm_region
struct.

Russell King 309dbbabee [ARM] dma: don't touch cache on dma_*_for_cpu()
As per the dma_unmap_* calls, we don't touch the cache when a DMA
buffer transitions from device to CPU ownership.  Presently, no
problems have been identified with speculative cache prefetching
which in itself is a new feature in later architectures.  We may
have to revisit the DMA API later for these architectures anyway.

Russell King 01135d92c1 [ARM] dma: Reduce to one dma_map_sg()/dma_unmap_sg() implementation
No point having two of these; dma_map_page() can do all the work
for us.
