Subject: [PATCH v1 2/3] powerpc/pci: Remove __pci_mmap_set_pgprot()

From: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@...nel.org>

The powerpc-specific __pci_mmap_set_pgprot() does two things:

  1) Disables write combining for I/O port space mappings

     This only affects procfs mappings.  The pci_mmap_resource() sysfs path
     only requests write combining for resources with IORESOURCE_PREFETCH
     set, which doesn't include I/O resources.

     The only way to request write combining for I/O port space mappings
     was via the PCIIOC_WRITE_COMBINE ioctl and the proc_bus_pci_mmap()
     path, and we recently changed that path to ignore write combining for
     I/O, so this code in powerpc is no longer needed.

  2) Automatically enables write combining for mappings of prefetchable
     resources, even if not requested by the user

     Both procfs (via PCIIOC_MMAP_IS_MEM and PCIIOC_WRITE_COMBINE ioctls)
     and sysfs (via "resourceN_wc" files, which are created for resources
     with IORESOURCE_PREFETCH) provide ways for the user to map PCI memory
     space with write combining.

     Users that desire write combining should use one of those ways instead
     of relying on powerpc-specific behavior.

Remove the powerpc-specific __pci_mmap_set_pgprot().

The user-visible effect of this change is that users mapping prefetchable
PCI memory space via procfs without PCIIOC_WRITE_COMBINE or via sysfs
"resourceN" (not "resourceN_wc") will get regular uncacheable mappings
instead of the write combining mappings they used to get.

The new behavior matches the behavior on all other arches that support
write combining mapping.
