[PATCH v2 3/8] dma-mapping: Clarify valid conditions for CPU cache line overlap

[Leon Romanovsky <leon@kernel.org>]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

Rename the DMA_ATTR_CPU_CACHE_CLEAN attribute to better reflect that it
is debugging aid to inform DMA core code that CPU cache line overlaps are
allowed, and refine the documentation describing its use.

-DMA_ATTR_CPU_CACHE_CLEAN
-------------------------
-
-This attribute indicates the CPU will not dirty any cacheline overlapping this
-DMA_FROM_DEVICE/DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL buffer while it is mapped. This allows
-multiple small buffers to safely share a cacheline without risk of data
-corruption, suppressing DMA debug warnings about overlapping mappings.
-All mappings sharing a cacheline should have this attribute.
+DMA_ATTR_DEBUGGING_IGNORE_CACHELINES
+------------------------------------
+
+This attribute indicates that CPU cache lines may overlap for buffers mapped
+with DMA_FROM_DEVICE or DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL.
+
+Such overlap may occur when callers map multiple small buffers that reside
+within the same cache line. In this case, callers must guarantee that the CPU
+will not dirty these cache lines after the mappings are established. When this
+condition is met, multiple buffers can safely share a cache line without risking
+data corruption.
+
+All mappings that share a cache line must set this attribute to suppress DMA
+debug warnings about overlapping mappings.
