The patch is for abiv1 & abiv2 CPU series' MMU support.
- abiv1 CPU (CK610) is VIPT cache and it doesn't support highmem.
- abiv2 CPUs are all PIPT cache and they could support highmem.
We seperate abiv1 and abiv2 into two direcotries for coding convention.

Thx for the tips and I think you mean the lib/dma-noncoherent.c in the
lastest kernel source and not in linux-4.16.2.
I'll rebase on the newest RC version of linux in next version patch and
reuse the code in lib/dma-noncoherent.c.
Current csky_dma_alloc implementation is not good, it use 512MB uncached
area to mirror the Normal cachable-512MB area. In next version patch,
we will increase the max-Normal memory zone to (1GB + 768MB).
In csky_dma_alloc we will seperate the atomic_dma and non-atomic_dma
and reserve the area in fixmap area.
Here is my memory layout plan in next version patch:
Fixmap : 0xffc02000 – 0xfffff000 (4 MB - 12KB) kmap_atomic, dma_atomic ...
Pkmap : 0xff800000 – 0xffc00000 (4 MB) PTR_PER_PTE = 1024
Vmalloc : 0xf0200000 – 0xff000000 (238 MB) max: 238MB + 256MB + 1GB
Lowmem : 0x80000000 – 0xf0000000 (1G + 768 MB)
