It may just decrease the chances of cache hit but it could always happen due to the existence of linear mapping with cacheable attribute. > Fixes: 813e83157001 ("arm64: dts: qcom: sc8280xp/sa8540p: add PCIe2-4 nodes") > Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan+linaro@...nel.org> Anyway, this is a really good find!
