Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
3d2054ad8c
CMA area is now managed by the separate zone, ZONE_MOVABLE, to fix many MM related problems. In this implementation, if CONFIG_HIGHMEM = y, then ZONE_MOVABLE is considered as HIGHMEM and the memory of the CMA area is also considered as HIGHMEM. That means that they are considered as the page without direct mapping. However, CMA area could be in a lowmem and the memory could have direct mapping. In ARM, when establishing a new mapping for DMA, direct mapping should be cleared since two mapping with different cache policy could cause unknown problem. With this patch, PageHighmem() for the CMA memory located in lowmem returns true so that the function for DMA mapping cannot notice whether it needs to clear direct mapping or not, correctly. To handle this situation, this patch always clears direct mapping for such CMA memory.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
