84aa462e2c [ARM] Rename consistent_sync() as dma_cache_maint()
consistent_sync() is used to handle the cache maintainence issues with
DMA operations.  Since we've now removed the misuse of this function
from the two MTD drivers, rename it to prevent future mis-use.

f454aa6b90 [ARM] Provide dummy noncoherent DMA API
We don't currently support the noncoherent DMA API, but it needs to
be provided for kernels with devres to link.

7ae5a761d2 [ARM] Convert DMA cache handling to take const void * args
The DMA cache handling functions take virtual addresses, but in the
form of unsigned long arguments.  This leads to a little confusion
about what exactly they take.  So, convert them to take const void *
instead.

f67637ee4b [PATCH] Add struct dev pointer to dma_is_consistent()
dma_is_consistent() is ill-designed in that it does not have a struct
device pointer argument which makes proper support for systems that consist
of a mix of coherent and non-coherent DMA devices hard.  Change
dma_is_consistent to take a struct device pointer as first argument and fix
the sole caller to pass it.

105ef9a0af [ARM] 3942/1: ARM: comment: consistent_sync should not be called directly
/*
 * Note: Drivers should NOT use this function directly, as it will break

23759dc643 [ARM] 3439/2: xsc3: add I/O coherency support
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

This patch adds support for the I/O coherent cache available on the
xsc3.  The approach is to provide a simple API to determine whether the
chipset supports coherency by calling arch_is_coherent() and then
setting the appropriate system memory PTE and PMD bits.  In addition,
we call this API on dma_alloc_coherent() and dma_map_single() calls.
A generic version exists that will compile out all the coherency-related
code that is not needed on the majority of ARM systems.

Note that we do not check for coherency in the dma_alloc_writecombine()
function as that still requires a special PTE setting.  We also don't
touch dma_mmap_coherent() as that is a special ARM-only API that is by
definition only used on non-coherent system.

7a228aaa87 [PATCH] arm: add comment about dma_supported()
)


From: Russell King <rmk+lkml@arm.linux.org.uk>

The ARM dma_supported() is rather basic, and I don't think it takes into
account everything that it should do (eg, whether the mask agrees with what
we'd return for GFP_DMA allocations).  Note this.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
