Hi Hiroshi,

Makes use of the same atomic pool from DMA, and skips kernel page
mapping which can involve sleep'able operations at allocating a kernel
page table.

I've read the whole code and it looks that it starts to become a little spaghetti - there are too
many places altered by those atomic changes and it is hard to follow the logic at the first sight.

IMHO it will be better to add a following function:

static void *__iommu_alloc_atomic(struct device *dev, size_t size,
                                  dma_addr_t *handle)
{
        struct page *page, **pages;
        int count = size >> PAGE_SHIFT;
        int array_size = count * sizeof(struct page *);
        void *addr;
        int i;

        pages = kzalloc(array_size, gfp);
        if (!pages)
                return NULL;

        addr = __alloc_from_pool(size, &page);
        if (!addr)
                goto err_pool;

        for (i = 0; i < count; i++)
                pages[i] = page + i;

        *handle = __iommu_create_mapping(dev, pages, size);
        if (*handle == DMA_ERROR_CODE)
                goto err_mapping;

        return addr;

err_mapping:
        __free_from_pool(addr, size);
err_pool:
        kfree(pages);
        return NULL;
}

and then call it@the beginning of the arm_iommu_alloc_attrs():

        if (gfp & GFP_ATOMIC)
                return __iommu_alloc_atomic(dev, size, handle);

You should also add support for the allocation from atomic_pool to __iommu_get_pages() function
to get dma_mmap() and dma_get_sgtable() working correctly.

Are you sure this one works?  __iommu_get_pages() won't find pages array, because atomic
allocations don't get their separate vm_struct area, so this check will be never reached. Maybe
a __iommu_free_atomic() function would also make it safer and easier to understand.
