memremap.c implements MM functionality for ZONE_DEVICE, so it really
should be in the mm/ directory, not the kernel/ one.

The kernel-doc parser doesn't handle expressions with %foo*.  Instead,
when an asterisk should be part of a constant, it uses an alternative
notation: `foo*`.

Pull arm swiotlb support from Christoph Hellwig:
 "This fixes a cascade of regressions that originally started with the
  addition of the ia64 port, but only got fatal once we removed most
  uses of block layer bounce buffering in Linux 4.18.

  The reason is that while the original i386/PAE code that was the first
  architecture that supported &gt; 4GB of memory without an iommu decided
  to leave bounce buffering to the subsystems, which in those days just
  mean block and networking as no one else consumed arbitrary userspace
  memory.

  Later with ia64, x86_64 and other ports we assumed that either an
  iommu or something that fakes it up ("software IOTLB" in beautiful
  Intel speak) is present and that subsystems can rely on that for
  dealing with addressing limitations in devices. Except that the ARM
  LPAE scheme that added larger physical address to 32-bit ARM did not
  follow that scheme and thus only worked by chance and only for block
  and networking I/O directly to highmem.

  Long story, short fix - add swiotlb support to arm when build for LPAE
  platforms, which actuallys turns out to be pretty trivial with the
  modern dma-direct / swiotlb code to fix the Linux 4.18-ish regression"

We already have tested it before. The second one should be removed.
With this change, the performance should have little improvement.

<content type='text'>
Since commit b191d6491be6 ("pidfd: fix a poll race when setting exit_state")
we unconditionally set exit_state to EXIT_ZOMBIE before calling into
do_notify_parent(). This was done to eliminate a race when querying
exit_state in do_notify_pidfd().
Back then we decided to do the absolute minimal thing to fix this and
not touch the rest of the exit_notify() function where exit_state is
set.
Since this fix has not caused any issues change the setting of
exit_state to EXIT_DEAD in the autoreap case to account for the fact hat
exit_state is set to EXIT_ZOMBIE unconditionally. This fix was planned
but also explicitly requested in [1] and makes the whole code more
consistent.

Previously a condition got missed where the pidfd waiters are awakened
before the exit_state gets set. This can result in a missed notification
[1] and the polling thread waiting forever.

It is fixed now, however it would be nice to avoid this kind of issue
going unnoticed in the future. So just add a warning to catch it in the
future.

<title>dma-contiguous: page-align the size in dma_free_contiguous()</title>

<id>f46cc0152501e46d1b3aa5e7eade61145070eab0</id>
<content type='text'>
According to the original dma_direct_alloc_pages() code:
{
	unsigned int count = PAGE_ALIGN(size) &gt;&gt; PAGE_SHIFT;

	if (!dma_release_from_contiguous(dev, page, count))
		__free_pages(page, get_order(size));
}

The count parameter for dma_release_from_contiguous() was page
aligned before the right-shifting operation, while the new API
dma_free_contiguous() forgets to have PAGE_ALIGN() at the size.

So this patch simply adds it to prevent any corner case.

The dma_alloc_contiguous() limits align at CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT for
cma_alloc() however it does not restore it for the fallback routine.
This will result in a size mismatch between the allocation and free
when running into the fallback routines after cma_alloc() fails, if
the align is larger than CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT.

This patch adds a cma_align to take care of cma_alloc() and prevent
the align from being overwritten.
