    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
     "This has tons of fixes and two major features which are concentrated
      around the Xen SWIOTLB library.
    
      The short <blurb> is that the tracing facility (just one function) has
      been added to SWIOTLB to make it easier to track I/O progress.
      Additionally under Xen and ARM (32 & 64) the Xen-SWIOTLB driver
      "is used to translate physical to machine and machine to physical
      addresses of foreign[guest] pages for DMA operations" (Stefano) when
      booting under hardware without proper IOMMU.
    
      There are also bug-fixes, cleanups, compile warning fixes, etc.
    
      The commit times for some of the commits is a bit fresh - that is b/c
      we wanted to make sure we have the Ack's from the ARM folks - which
      with the string of back-to-back conferences took a bit of time.  Rest
      assured - the code has been stewing in #linux-next for some time.
    
      Features:
       - SWIOTLB has tracing added when doing bounce buffer.
       - Xen ARM/ARM64 can use Xen-SWIOTLB.  This work allows Linux to
         safely program real devices for DMA operations when running as a
         guest on Xen on ARM, without IOMMU support. [*1]
       - xen_raw_printk works with PVHVM guests if needed.
    
      Bug-fixes:
       - Make memory ballooning work under HVM with large MMIO region.
       - Inform hypervisor of MCFG regions found in ACPI DSDT.
       - Remove deprecated IRQF_DISABLED.
       - Remove deprecated __cpuinit.
    
      [*1]:
      "On arm and arm64 all Xen guests, including dom0, run with second
       stage translation enabled.  As a consequence when dom0 programs a
       device for a DMA operation is going to use (pseudo) physical
       addresses instead machine addresses.  This work introduces two trees
       to track physical to machine and machine to physical mappings of
       foreign pages.  Local pages are assumed mapped 1:1 (physical address
       == machine address).  It enables the SWIOTLB-Xen driver on ARM and
       ARM64, so that Linux can translate physical addresses to machine
       addresses for dma operations when necessary.  " (Stefano)"
