[RFC 1/2] virtio_console: Add support for DMA memory allocation

From: sjur . brandeland
Date: Mon Sep 03 2012 - 09:51:45 EST


From: Sjur BrÃndeland <sjur.brandeland@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add feature VIRTIO_CONSOLE_F_DMA_MEM. If the architecture has
DMA support and this feature bit is set, the virtio data buffers
will be allocated from DMA memory.

This is needed for using virtio_console from the remoteproc
framework.
