Merge tag 'dma-mapping-4.18' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/dma-mapping
Pull dma-mapping updates from Christoph Hellwig: - replace the force_dma flag with a dma_configure bus method. (Nipun Gupta, although one patch is Ñ–ncorrectly attributed to me due to a git rebase bug) - use GFP_DMA32 more agressively in dma-direct. (Takashi Iwai) - remove PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS and rely on the dma-mapping API to do the right thing for bounce buffering. - move dma-debug initialization to common code, and apply a few cleanups to the dma-debug code. - cleanup the Kconfig mess around swiotlb selection - swiotlb comment fixup (Yisheng Xie) - a trivial swiotlb fix. (Dan Carpenter) - support swiotlb on RISC-V. (based on a patch from Palmer Dabbelt) - add a new generic dma-noncoherent dma_map_ops implementation and use it for arc, c6x and nds32. - improve scatterlist validity checking in dma-debug. (Robin Murphy) - add a struct device quirk to limit the dma-mask to 32-bit due to bridge/system issues, and switch x86 to use it instead of a local hack for VIA bridges. - handle devices without a dma_mask more gracefully in the dma-direct code. * tag 'dma-mapping-4.18' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/dma-mapping: (48 commits) dma-direct: don't crash on device without dma_mask nds32: use generic dma_noncoherent_ops nds32: implement the unmap_sg DMA operation nds32: consolidate DMA cache maintainance routines x86/pci-dma: switch the VIA 32-bit DMA quirk to use the struct device flag x86/pci-dma: remove the explicit nodac and allowdac option x86/pci-dma: remove the experimental forcesac boot option Documentation/x86: remove a stray reference to pci-nommu.c core, dma-direct: add a flag 32-bit dma limits dma-mapping: remove unused gfp_t parameter to arch_dma_alloc_attrs dma-debug: check scatterlist segments c6x: use generic dma_noncoherent_ops arc: use generic dma_noncoherent_ops arc: fix arc_dma_{map,unmap}_page arc: fix arc_dma_sync_sg_for_{cpu,device} arc: simplify arc_dma_sync_single_for_{cpu,device} dma-mapping: provide a generic dma-noncoherent implementation dma-mapping: simplify Kconfig dependencies riscv: add swiotlb support riscv: only enable ZONE_DMA32 for 64-bit ...
