The series adds support to IORT RMR nodes specified in IORT
Revision E -ARM DEN 0049E[0]. RMR nodes are used to describe memory
ranges that are used by endpoints and require a unity mapping
in SMMU.
We have faced issues with 3408iMR RAID controller cards which
fail to boot when SMMU is enabled. This is because these controllers
make use of host memory for various caching related purposes and when
SMMU is enabled the iMR firmware fails to access these memory regions
as there is no mapping for them. IORT RMR provides a way for UEFI to
describe and report these memory regions so that the kernel can make
a unity mapping for these in SMMU.
RFC because, Patch #1 is to update the actbl2.h and should be done
through acpica update. I have send out a pull request[1] for that.
Tests:
With a UEFI, that reports the RMR for the dev,
