Technically, memory is always handed over to the GIC following a GICv5 MMIO register poll that guarantees the GIC has seen the change (whether it is making an IST table valid, or enabling an ITS - that in turn means device table (DT) translations are enabled). One thing I could do is to make the readl_relaxed_poll_timeout_atomic() readl_poll_timeout_atomic() on those "completion registers", which adds the required barriers (I can add a comment to the related calling sites). That should also allow me to remove the dma_rmb() barrier that I need in: gicv5_irs_iste_alloc() to prevent the CPU from issuing a cache invalidation before the readl_relaxed_poll_timeout_atomic() loop has completed. I don't see any other corner case where the _relaxed version would not work I tried to follow other drivers where AFAICS the relaxed version is used by default unless the non-relaxed one is strictly needed (GICv3/SMMUv3). I can obviously update the {irs/its}_ helpers to add a relaxed name to make sure it is more obvious to understand what they do. Would that work ?
