Merge tag 'dma-mapping-5.20-2022-08-06' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/dma-mapping
Pull dma-mapping updates from Christoph Hellwig: - convert arm32 to the common dma-direct code (Arnd Bergmann, Robin Murphy, Christoph Hellwig) - restructure the PCIe peer to peer mapping support (Logan Gunthorpe) - allow the IOMMU code to communicate an optional DMA mapping length and use that in scsi and libata (John Garry) - split the global swiotlb lock (Tianyu Lan) - various fixes and cleanup (Chao Gao, Dan Carpenter, Dongli Zhang, Lukas Bulwahn, Robin Murphy) * tag 'dma-mapping-5.20-2022-08-06' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/dma-mapping: (45 commits) swiotlb: fix passing local variable to debugfs_create_ulong() dma-mapping: reformat comment to suppress htmldoc warning PCI/P2PDMA: Remove pci_p2pdma_[un]map_sg() RDMA/rw: drop pci_p2pdma_[un]map_sg() RDMA/core: introduce ib_dma_pci_p2p_dma_supported() nvme-pci: convert to using dma_map_sgtable() nvme-pci: check DMA ops when indicating support for PCI P2PDMA iommu/dma: support PCI P2PDMA pages in dma-iommu map_sg iommu: Explicitly skip bus address marked segments in __iommu_map_sg() dma-mapping: add flags to dma_map_ops to indicate PCI P2PDMA support dma-direct: support PCI P2PDMA pages in dma-direct map_sg dma-mapping: allow EREMOTEIO return code for P2PDMA transfers PCI/P2PDMA: Introduce helpers for dma_map_sg implementations PCI/P2PDMA: Attempt to set map_type if it has not been set lib/scatterlist: add flag for indicating P2PDMA segments in an SGL swiotlb: clean up some coding style and minor issues dma-mapping: update comment after dmabounce removal scsi: sd: Add a comment about limiting max_sectors to shost optimal limit ata: libata-scsi: cap ata_device->max_sectors according to shost->max_sectors scsi: scsi_transport_sas: cap shost opt_sectors according to DMA optimal limit ...
