Let's just stick with 'nonposted-mmio', but drop 'posted-mmio'. I'd
rather know if and when we need 'posted-mmio'. It does need to be added
to the DT spec[1] and schema[2] though (GH PRs are fine for both).
I think the reason for having "posted-mmio" is that you cannot properly
define the PCI host controller nodes on the M1 without that: Since
nonposted-mmio applies to all child nodes, this would mean the PCI
memory space gets declared as nonposted by the DT, but the hardware
requires it to be mapped as posted.
I don't think so. PCI devices wouldn't use any of the code paths in
this patch. They would map their memory space with plain ioremap()
which is posted.
