1/ Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
kernel's direct map. This facility is used by the pmem driver to
enable pfn_to_page() operations on the page frames returned by DAX
('direct_access' in 'struct block_device_operations'). For now, the
'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes from "System
RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device memory will
arrive in a later kernel.
2/ Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3. Completion of
the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
3/ Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
4/ Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
5/ Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support
for issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
fixes.

"This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has
appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical

PCI BARs tell us whether prefetching is safe, but they don't say
anything about write combining (WC). WC changes ordering rules
and allows writes to be collapsed, so it's not safe in general
to use it on a prefetchable region.
Add pci_iomap_wc() and pci_iomap_wc_range() so drivers can take
advantage of write combining when they know it's safe.
On architectures that don't fully support WC, e.g., x86 without
PAT, drivers for legacy framebuffers may get some of the benefit
by using arch_phys_wc_add() in addition to pci_iomap_wc(). But
arch_phys_wc_add() is unreliable and should be avoided in
general. On x86, it uses MTRRs, which are limited in number and
size, so the results will vary based on driver loading order.
The goals of adding pci_iomap_wc() are to:
- Give drivers an architecture-independent way to use WC so they can stop
using interfaces like mtrr_add() (on x86, pci_iomap_wc() uses
PAT when available).
- Move toward using _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC, not _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC_MINUS,
on x86 on ioremap_nocache() (see de33c442ed ("x86 PAT: fix
performance drop for glx, use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache()
and pci_mmap_page_range()").

Quoting Arnd:
I was thinking the opposite approach and basically removing all uses
of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE from the kernel. There are only a handful of
them.and we can probably replace them all with hardcoded
ioremap_cached() calls in the cases they are actually useful.
All existing usages of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE call ioremap() instead of
ioremap_nocache() if the resource is cacheable, however ioremap() is
uncached by default. Clearly none of the existing usages care about the
cacheability. Particularly devm_ioremap_resource() never worked as
advertised since it always fell back to plain ioremap().
Clean this up as the new direction we want is to convert
ioremap_<type>() usages to memremap(..., flags).

Some architectures need to override the way
IO port mapping is done on PCI devices.
Supply a generic macro that calls
ioport_map, and make it possible for architectures
to override.
