Christoph Hellwig 886643b766 arm64: use the generic swiotlb_dma_ops
Now that the generic swiotlb code supports non-coherent DMA we can switch
to it for arm64.  For that we need to refactor the existing
alloc/free/mmap/pgprot helpers to be used as the architecture hooks,
and implement the standard arch_sync_dma_for_{device,cpu} hooks for
cache maintaincance in the streaming dma hooks, which also implies
using the generic dma_coherent flag in struct device.

Note that we need to keep the old is_device_dma_coherent function around
for now, so that the shared arm/arm64 Xen code keeps working.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
