Do I need to split this patch into 2 ones?: a).the pagetable code that support 34bit PA when MTK quirk is enabled. It only has the symmetric code handle BIT32/BIT33. Besides, I will add CONFIG_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT in the iopte_to_addr as commented before. b) MTK code that apply the special "4gb mode" flow. And the "oas" will always is 34 bit since v7s has already supported our case. [1]http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mediatek/2019-June/020991.html > > Thanks, > > Will
