Merge tag 'dma-mapping-5.4' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/dma-mapping
Pull dma-mapping updates from Christoph Hellwig:
- add dma-mapping and block layer helpers to take care of IOMMU merging
for mmc plus subsequent fixups (Yoshihiro Shimoda)
- rework handling of the pgprot bits for remapping (me)
- take care of the dma direct infrastructure for swiotlb-xen (me)
- improve the dma noncoherent remapping infrastructure (me)
- better defaults for ->mmap, ->get_sgtable and ->get_required_mask
(me)
- cleanup mmaping of coherent DMA allocations (me)
- various misc cleanups (Andy Shevchenko, me)
