Hi Lorenzo,
Based on Robin's response [1], I don't think we should change the
implementation based on MIPS32 until we have (1) someone showing MIPS32 is
using this driver and (2) that there's an actual perf regression when using
dmam_alloc_coherent(). My patch series addresses a real issue by removing the
dependency on ZONE_DMA32. Even if we did drop my patches, it won't solve
Serge's DMA mask issues since the DW PCIe host driver will continue to
unconditionally set the mask to 32-bits.
