ARM: NOMMU: Introduce dma operations for noMMU
R/M classes of cpus can have memory covered by MPU which in turn might
configure RAM as Normal i.e. bufferable and cacheable. It breaks
dma_alloc_coherent() and friends, since data can stuck in caches now
or be buffered.
This patch factors out DMA support for NOMMU configuration into
separate entity which provides dedicated dma_ops. We have to handle
there several cases:
- configurations with MMU/MPU setup
- configurations without MMU/MPU setup
- special case for M-class, since caches and MPU there are optional
In general we rely on default DMA area for coherent allocations or/and
per-device memory reserves suitable for coherent DMA, so if such
regions are set coherent allocations go from there.
In case MMU/MPU was not setup we fallback to normal page allocator for
DMA memory allocation.
In case we run M-class cpus, for configuration without cache support
(like Cortex-M3/M4) dma operations are forced to be coherent and wired
with dma-noop (such decision is made based on cacheid global
variable); however, if caches are detected there and no DMA coherent
region is given (either default or per-device), dma is disallowed even
MPU is not set - it is because M-class implement system memory map
which defines part of address space as Normal memory.
