Mind if I tweak the second sentence to be: This is different from "Device-nGnR[nE]" memory which is intended for MMIO and thus forbids speculation, preserves access size, requires strict alignment and can also force write responses to come from the endpoint. ? It's a small change, but it better fits with the arm64 terminology ("strongly ordered" is no longer used in the architecture). If you're happy with that, I can make the change and queue this patch for 5.4.
I'm fine with the change, but you really need this series as base, as there is no pgprot_dmacoherent before the series. So I think I'll have to queue it up if we want it for 5.4, and I'll need a few more reviews for the other patches in this series first.
