[PATCH RFC 3/6] efi: Add EFI_MEMORY_ISA_{MASK,VALID}

From: Sven Peter <sven@kernel.org>
Date: 2026-07-08 07:16:01
Also in: asahi, b4-sent, linux-devicetree, linux-efi, lkml
Subsystem: extensible firmware interface (efi), the rest · Maintainers: Ard Biesheuvel, Linus Torvalds

As defined in UEFI 2.10, Section 7.2.3 [1], if EFI_MEMORY_ISA_VALID is
set the memory region is to be mapped using ISA-specific cacheability
attributes found in EFI_MEMORY_ISA_MASK. On AArch64, these bits are e.g.
defined as the attributes stored in MAIR [2].
