Subject: [RFC 2/3] USB: core: Add non-coherent buffer allocation helpers
As noted recently by Matwey V. Kornilov, using coherent
buffers on platforms _without_ hardware coherency results in
some devices being completely unusable, due to transfers
being too slow.
Moreover, using non-coherent buffers on platforms _with_ hardware
coherency, do not show a significant impact. This has been tested
by Matwey on PWC USB cameras on x86_64 and ARM platforms.
Quoting [1] (where kmalloc-ed buffers use streaming mappings):
"""
[..] average memcpy() data transfer rate (rate) and handler
completion time (time) have been measured when running video stream at
640x480 resolution at 10fps.
x86_64 based system (Intel Core i5-3470). This platform has hardware
coherent DMA support and proposed change doesn't make big difference here.
* kmalloc: rate = (2.0 +- 0.4) GBps
time = (5.0 +- 3.0) usec
* usb_alloc_coherent: rate = (3.4 +- 1.2) GBps
time = (3.5 +- 3.0) usec
armv7l based system (TI AM335x BeagleBone Black @ 300MHz). This platform
has no hardware coherent DMA support. DMA coherence is implemented via
disabled page caching that slows down memcpy() due to memory controller
behaviour.
* kmalloc: rate = (114 +- 5) MBps
time = (84 +- 4) usec
* usb_alloc_coherent: rate = (28.1 +- 0.1) MBps
time = (341 +- 2) usec
""
Introduce a pair of usb_{alloc,free}_noncoherent helper functions,
for drivers that want to use non-coherent transfer buffers.
