Reduce ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to 64 bytes and allow the warning/taint to
indicate if there are machines that unknowingly rely on this.
The warning is being triggered on Qualcomm MSM8996, as well as the out-of-spec taint:
Is this booting with ACPI or DT?
------------[ cut here ]------------
rtc-pm8xxx 400f000.qcom,spmi:pmic@0:rtc@6000: ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN smaller than CTR_EL0.CWG (64 < 128)
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at arch/arm64/mm/dma-mapping.c:45 arch_setup_dma_ops+0xf8/0x10c
[...]
This warning is triggered with nearly every driver probe, not only rtc-pm8xxx.
I have a suspicion none of the reported devices actually do any DMA, so
in practice it should be safe but we need to figure out why
arch_setup_dma_ops() gets called.
It gets called because there's no straightforward way to know that a
platform device *isn't* DMA-capable, so we have to assume they are.
I would also assume that in a Qcom SoC there really are at least some
things doing non-coherent DMA :(
Robin.
