Since you don't see anything in the logs like a crash and the system
restarts, I suspect it's some deadlock and that's triggering the
watchdog. We have an erratum (826319) but that's for Cortex-A53. IIUC
SDM845 has Kryo 3xx series which based on some random google searches is
derived from A75/A55. Unfortunately the MIDR_EL1 register doesn't match
the Arm Ltd numbering, so I have no idea what CPUs these are by looking
at the boot log.

I wouldn't be surprised if you hit a similar bug, though I couldn't find
anything close in the A55 errata notice.

While we could revert commit c44094eee32f ("arm64: dma: Drop cache
invalidation from arch_dma_prep_coherent()"), if you hit a real hardware
issue it may trigger in other scenario where we only do cache cleaning
(without invalidate), like arch_sync_dma_for_device(). So I'd rather get
to the bottom of this and potentially enable the workaround for this
chipset.

You could give it a quick try to by adding the MIDR ranges for SDM845 to
struct midr_range workaround_clean_cache[].

After that I suggest you raise it with Qualcomm to investigate. Normally
we ask for an erratum number to enable a workaround and it's only
Qualcomm that can provide one here.
