Pull DMA mapping updates from Christoph Hellwig:
 "A huge update this time, but a lot of that is just consolidating or
  removing code:

   - provide a common DMA_MAPPING_ERROR definition and avoid indirect
     calls for dma_map_* error checking

   - use direct calls for the DMA direct mapping case, avoiding huge
     retpoline overhead for high performance workloads

   - merge the swiotlb dma_map_ops into dma-direct

   - provide a generic remapping DMA consistent allocator for
     architectures that have devices that perform DMA that is not cache
     coherent. Based on the existing arm64 implementation and also used
     for csky now.

   - improve the dma-debug infrastructure, including dynamic allocation
     of entries (Robin Murphy)

   - default to providing chaining scatterlist everywhere, with opt-outs
     for the few architectures (alpha, parisc, most arm32 variants) that
     can't cope with it

   - misc sparc32 dma-related cleanups

   - remove the dma_mark_clean arch hook used by swiotlb on ia64 and
     replace it with the generic noncoherent infrastructure

   - fix the return type of dma_set_max_seg_size (Niklas Söderlund)

   - move the dummy dma ops for not DMA capable devices from arm64 to
     common code (Robin Murphy)

   - ensure dma_alloc_coherent returns zeroed memory to avoid kernel
     data leaks through userspace. We already did this for most common
     architectures, but this ensures we do it everywhere.
     dma_zalloc_coherent has been deprecated and can hopefully be
     removed after -rc1 with a coccinelle script"

<title>treewide: surround Kconfig file paths with double quotes</title>

The Kconfig lexer supports special characters such as '.' and '/' in
the parameter context. In my understanding, the reason is just to
support bare file paths in the source statement.

I do not see a good reason to complicate Kconfig for the room of
ambiguity.

The majority of code already surrounds file paths with double quotes,
and it makes sense since file paths are constant string literals.

Make it treewide consistent now.

<content type='text'>
Powerpc has somewhat odd usage where ZONE_DMA is used for all memory on
common 64-bit configfs, and ZONE_DMA32 is used for 31-bit schemes.

Move to a scheme closer to what other architectures use (and I dare to
say the intent of the system):

 - ZONE_DMA: optionally for memory &lt; 31-bit (64-bit embedded only)
 - ZONE_NORMAL: everything addressable by the kernel
 - ZONE_HIGHMEM: memory &gt; 32-bit for 32-bit kernels

Also provide information on how ZONE_DMA is used by defining
ARCH_ZONE_DMA_BITS.

Contains various fixes from Benjamin Herrenschmidt.

<title>arch: switch the default on ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN</title>

These days architectures are mostly out of the business of dealing with
struct scatterlist at all, unless they have architecture specific iommu
drivers.  Replace the ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN symbol with a ARCH_NO_SG_CHAIN
one only enabled for architectures with horrible legacy iommu drivers
like alpha and parisc, and conditionally for arm which wants to keep it
disable for legacy platforms.

<title>powerpc/8xx: reintroduce 16K pages with HW assistance</title>

<id>55c8fc3f4930286580af98711a481f35fa564e42</id>

Using this HW assistance implies some constraints on the
page table structure:
- Regardless of the main page size used (4k or 16k), the
level 1 table (PGD) contains 1024 entries and each PGD entry covers
a 4Mbytes area which is managed by a level 2 table (PTE) containing
also 1024 entries each describing a 4k page.
- 16k pages require 4 identifical entries in the L2 table
- 512k pages PTE have to be spread every 128 bytes in the L2 table
- 8M pages PTE are at the address pointed by the L1 entry and each
8M page require 2 identical entries in the PGD.

In order to use hardware assistance with 16K pages, this patch does
the following modifications:
- Make PGD size independent of the main page size
- In 16k pages mode, redefine pte_t as a struct with 4 elements,
and populate those 4 elements in __set_pte_at() and pte_update()
- Adapt the size of the hugepage tables.
- Define a PTE_FRAGMENT_NB so that a 16k page contains 4 page tables.

<title>powerpc/8xx: Temporarily disable 16k pages and hugepages</title>

<content type='text'>
In preparation of making use of hardware assistance in TLB handlers,
this patch temporarily disables 16K pages and hugepages. The reason
is that when using HW assistance in 4K pages mode, the linux model
fit with the HW model for 4K pages and 8M pages.

However for 16K pages and 512K mode some additional work is needed
to get linux model fit with HW model.
For the 8M pages, they will naturaly come back when we switch to
HW assistance, without any additional handling.
In order to keep the following patch smaller, the removal of the
current special handling for 8M pages gets removed here as well.

Therefore the 4K pages mode will be implemented first and without
support for 512k hugepages. Then the 512k hugepages will be brought
back. And the 16K pages will be implemented in the following step.
