mmc: Delete bounce buffer handling
In may, Steven sent a patch deleting the bounce buffer handling and the CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_BOUNCE option. I chose the less invasive path of making it a runtime config option, and we merged that successfully for kernel v4.12. The code is however just standing in the way and taking up space for seemingly no gain on any systems in wide use today. Pierre says the code was there to improve speed on TI SDHCI controllers on certain HP laptops and possibly some Ricoh controllers as well. Early SDHCI controllers lacked the scatter-gather feature, which made software bounce buffers a significant speed boost. We are clearly talking about the list of SDHCI PCI-based MMC/SD card readers found in the pci_ids[] list in drivers/mmc/host/sdhci-pci-core.c. The TI SDHCI derivative is not supported by the upstream kernel. This leaves the Ricoh. What we can however notice is that the x86 defconfigs in the kernel did not enable CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_BOUNCE option, which means that any such laptop would have to have a custom configured kernel to actually take advantage of this bounce buffer speed-up. It simply seems like there was a speed optimization for the Ricoh controllers that noone was using. (I have not checked the distro defconfigs but I am pretty sure the situation is the same there.) Bounce buffers increased performance on the OMAP HSMMC at one point, and was part of the original submission in commit a45c6cb81647 ("[ARM] 5369/1: omap mmc: Add new omap hsmmc controller for 2430 and 34xx, v3") This optimization was removed in commit 0ccd76d4c236 ("omap_hsmmc: Implement scatter-gather emulation") which found that scatter-gather emulation provided even better performance. The same was introduced for SDHCI in commit 2134a922c6e7 ("sdhci: scatter-gather (ADMA) support") I am pretty positively convinced that software scatter-gather emulation will do for any host controller what the bounce buffers were doing. Essentially, the bounce buffer was a reimplementation of software scatter-gather-emulation in the MMC subsystem, and it should be done away with.
