Michael Kelley 37200078ed Drivers: hv: vmbus: Propagate VMbus coherence to each VMbus device
VMbus synthetic devices are not represented in the ACPI DSDT -- only
the top level VMbus device is represented. As a result, on ARM64
coherence information in the _CCA method is not specified for
synthetic devices, so they default to not hardware coherent.
Drivers for some of these synthetic devices have been recently
updated to use the standard DMA APIs, and they are incurring extra
overhead of unneeded software coherence management.

Fix this by propagating coherence information from the VMbus node
in ACPI to the individual synthetic devices. There's no effect on
x86/x64 where devices are always hardware coherent.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
