[PATCH 1/4] ARM: shmobile: Handle CA7 arch timer delay

[Simon Horman]

From: Magnus Damm <damm+renesas@opensource.se>

Update the delay code to include arch timer checks
for CA7. From a arch timer availability perspective
CA7 should be treated same as CA15.

This is one of the patches that broke allmodconfig in linux-next.

Can you apply the patch below before sending it to arm-soc?

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: shmobile: always build rcar setup for armv7

In a combined ARMv6/v7 kernel, the setup-rcar-gen2.c cannot
currently be compiled correctly because it uses the isb
instruction that is not available on ARMv6. Adding the
-march=armv7-a flag lets the compiler know that it is safe
to build this file for ARMv7.

I believe the problem only exists in your tree at the moment, not in arm-soc,
so please apply it on top of the branch that introduced the build error
before sending it to arm-soc. If you have already sent a pull request
but we haven't taken it yet, send an updated pull request that adds
this patch.

Sure, will do.

[PATCH 4/4] ARM: shmobile: Select CONFIG_ZONE_DMA when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is enabled

[Simon Horman]

From: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart+renesas@ideasonboard.com>

Most IP cores on ARM Renesas platforms can only address 32 bits of
physical memory for DMA. Without CONFIG_ZONE_DMA enabled and with the
recent CMA highmem allocation support, the default CMA zone is reserved
above the 4GiB limit when LPAE is enabled, resulting in various driver
failures.

Fix the problem by selecting CONFIG_ZONE_DMA. Other options to
investigate in the future would be to either enable IOMMU support or use
custom CMA reservations for peripherals not supporting LPAE.

While not a strict dependency, the "[PATCH 0/4] Low/high memory CMA
reservation fixes" series is also required to fix a different but related CMA
allocation problem.

Pulled into next/soc.

Note that the CONFIG_ZONE_DMA change might not be the best solution, we should
probably have CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 instead as some other architectures do, so
you can use the entire lowmem area for DMA allocations.

I might be mistaken, but if the machine description doesn't set the 
dma_zone_size field, arm_dma_zone_size and arm_dma_limit are set to 0 and 
0xffffffff respectively. This results in MAX_DMA_ADDRESS being set to 
0xffffffff. Doesn't that allow using the entire lowmem area for DMA 
allocations ?

Sorry for the late reply. I hadn't actually looked at the details this
far, and I would assume that you are right.
