    dma-pool: add additional coherent pools to map to gfp mask · c84dc6e6
    David Rientjes 提交于
    The single atomic pool is allocated from the lowest zone possible since
    it is guaranteed to be applicable for any DMA allocation.
    
    Devices may allocate through the DMA API but not have a strict reliance
    on GFP_DMA memory.  Since the atomic pool will be used for all
    non-blockable allocations, returning all memory from ZONE_DMA may
    unnecessarily deplete the zone.
    
    Provision for multiple atomic pools that will map to the optimal gfp
    mask of the device.
    
    When allocating non-blockable memory, determine the optimal gfp mask of
    the device and use the appropriate atomic pool.
    
    The coherent DMA mask will remain the same between allocation and free
    and, thus, memory will be freed to the same atomic pool it was allocated
    from.
    
    __dma_atomic_pool_init() will be changed to return struct gen_pool *
    later once dynamic expansion is added.
