Hi Palmer,

Currently, all flavors of ioremap_xyz() function maps to the generic
ioremap() which means any ioremap_xyz() call will always map the
target memory as IO using _PAGE_IOREMAP page attributes. This breaks
ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wc() on systems with Svpbmt because memory
remapped using ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wc() will use _PAGE_IOREMAP
page attributes.

To address above (just like other architectures), we implement RISC-V
specific ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wc() which maps memory using page
attributes as defined by the Svpbmt specification.

This is a crucial RC fix. Can you please take this ?

Sorry I missed this, I thought it was just part of the rest of this patch set. That said, I'm not actually sure this is a critical fix: sure it's a performance problem, and if some driver is expecting ioremap_cache() to go fast then possibly a pretty big one, but the only Svpmbt hardware that exists is the D1 and that was just supported this release so it's not a regression. Maybe that's a bit pedantic, but all this travel has kind of made things a mess and I'm trying to make sure nothing goes off the rails.

Probably a pointless distinction as it'll just get backported anyway, but I'm going to hold off on this for now -- it generally looks OK, but I don't get back until this weekend and I'm super tired so I'm trying to avoid screwing anything up.


Regards,
Anup
