SubjectRe: [PATCH] dma-pool: Do not allocate pool memory from CMA
From
Date
Hi Christoph,
thanks for having a look at this!

Care to expand on this? I do get that checking dma_coherent_ok() on memory
that'll later on be mapped into an iommu is kind of silly, although I think
harmless in Amir's specific case, since devices have wide enough dma-ranges. Is
there more to it?

IIUC this will always return true given a CMA is present. Which reverts to the
previous behaviour (previous as in breaking some rpi4 setups), isn't it?
