Subject: [PATCH 1/2] dma-mapping: support setting memory uncached in place

We currently only support remapping memory as uncached through vmap
or a magic uncached segment provided by some architectures.  But there
is a simpler and much better way available on some architectures where
we can just remap the memory in place.  The advantages are:

 1) no aliasing is possible, which prevents speculating into the
    cached alias
 2) there is no need to allocate new ptes and thus no need for a special
    pre-allocated pool of memory that can be used with GFP_ATOMIC DMA
    allocations

The downside is that architectures must provide a way to set arbitrary
pages uncached in the kernel mapping, which might not be possible on
architecture that have a special implicit kernel mapping, and requires
splitting of huge page kernel mappings where they exist.
