Subject: [PATCH 5.4 118/151] virtio: virtio_console: fix DMA memory allocation for rproc serial

From: Alexander Lobakin <alobakin@...me>

commit 9d516aa82b7d4fbe7f6303348697960ba03a530b upstream.

Since commit 086d08725d34 ("remoteproc: create vdev subdevice with
specific dma memory pool"), every remoteproc has a DMA subdevice
("remoteprocX#vdevYbuffer") for each virtio device, which inherits
DMA capabilities from the corresponding platform device. This allowed
to associate different DMA pools with each vdev, and required from
virtio drivers to perform DMA operations with the parent device
(vdev->dev.parent) instead of grandparent (vdev->dev.parent->parent).

virtio_rpmsg_bus was already changed in the same merge cycle with
commit d999b622fcfb ("rpmsg: virtio: allocate buffer from parent"),
but virtio_console did not. In fact, operations using the grandparent
worked fine while the grandparent was the platform device, but since
commit c774ad010873 ("remoteproc: Fix and restore the parenting
hierarchy for vdev") this was changed, and now the grandparent device
is the remoteproc device without any DMA capabilities.
So, starting v5.8-rc1 the following warning is observed:

[    2.483925] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[    2.489148] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 101 at kernel/dma/mapping.c:427 0x80e7eee8

[    2.920102] virtio-ports vport1p0: Error allocating inbufs

kernel/dma/mapping.c:427 is:

WARN_ON_ONCE(!dev->coherent_dma_mask);

obviously because the grandparent now is remoteproc dev without any
DMA caps:

[    3.104943] Parent: remoteproc0#vdev1buffer, grandparent: remoteproc0

Fix this the same way as it was for virtio_rpmsg_bus, using just the
parent device (vdev->dev.parent, "remoteprocX#vdevYbuffer") for DMA
operations.
This also allows now to reserve DMA pools/buffers for rproc serial
via Device Tree.
