So far all arm64 devices have supported 32 bit DMA masks for their peripherals. This is not true anymore for the Raspberry Pi 4 as most of it's peripherals can only address the first GB of memory on a total of up to 4 GB. This goes against ZONE_DMA32's intent, as it's expected for ZONE_DMA32 to be addressable with a 32 bit mask. So it was decided to re-introduce ZONE_DMA in arm64. ZONE_DMA will contain the lower 1G of memory, which is currently the memory area addressable by any peripheral on an arm64 device. ZONE_DMA32 will contain the rest of the 32 bit addressable memory.

README
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.
