Now I saw the ARM-specific part. Can you not use something like
ioremap_cached() which would give normal cacheable memory (at least on
ARMv7).
No, I cannot because ioremap_cached uses MT_DEVICE_CACHED, while this
needs to be MT_MEMORY. It is used for normal memory pages, not device
memory.
MT_DEVICE_CACHED is Normal memory for ARMv7.
I didn't realize that MT_DEVICE_CACHED and MT_MEMORY end up having the
same AttrIndx encoding!
In that case yes, I should be able to use it.
I take that I should just implement ioremap_cached on arm64 as well?
