The x86 one might just be a mistake.

Yeah, that is a bug, I spotted that too.

Not so sure this is a bug, this code is only about setting up MSIs on
ARM. It probably doesn't need to be atomic.

The patch "iommu: Add gfp parameter to iommu_ops::map" does this. It could be
called from an atomic context as showed in the arm64 call traces,

+int iommu_map(struct iommu_domain *domain, unsigned long iova,
+ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂphys_addr_t paddr, size_t size, int prot)
+{
+ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂmight_sleep();
+ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂreturn __iommu_map(domain, iova, paddr, size, prot, GFP_KERNEL);
+}

Also note that it's *only* the might_sleep() at issue here - none of the arm64 IOMMU drivers have been converted to look at the new gfp argument yet, so anything they actually allocate while mapping will still be GFP_ATOMIC anyway.

(Carrying that flag down through the whole io-pgtable stack is on my to-do list...)

Robin.
