Subject: [PATCHv3 0/5] Atomic pool for arm64

Hi,

This is a series to add a pool for atomic allocations for arm64. It was
previously suggested to try and share more code with arm. I did some
refactoring to have arm use genalloc and pull out some of the remapping
code. The end result is a negative diffstat overall for arm dma-mapping.c.

There still might be some room for more refactoring of atomic functions into
common dma-mapping.c and integration with dma-coherent.c but there should
be less overlap now.

Reviews and testing welcome.

Thanks,
Laura

v3: Now a patch series due to refactoring of arm code. arm and arm64 now both
use genalloc for atomic pool management. genalloc extensions added.
DMA remapping code factored out as well.

v2: Various bug fixes pointed out by David and Ritesh (CMA dependency, swapping
coherent, noncoherent). I'm still not sure how to address the devicetree
suggestion by Will [1][2]. I added the devicetree mailing list this time around
to get more input on this.

  lib/genalloc.c: Add power aligned algorithm
  lib/genalloc.c: Add genpool range check function
  common: dma-mapping: Introduce common remapping functions
  arm: use genalloc for the atomic pool
  arm64: Add atomic pool for non-coherent and CMA allocaitons.
