Make use of the third free LSB in scatterlist's page_link on 64bit

The extra bit will be used by dma_[un]map_sg_p2pdma() to determine when a
given SGL segments dma_address points to a PCI bus address.
dma_unmap_sg_p2pdma() will need to perform different cleanup when a
segment is marked as a bus address.
The new bit will only be used when CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA is set; this means
PCI P2PDMA will require CONFIG_64BIT. This should be acceptable as the
majority of P2PDMA use cases are restricted to newer root complexes and
roughly require the extra address space for memory BARs used in the
transactions.

Does this serve any useful purpose? If a page is determined to be device
memory, it's not going to suddenly stop being device memory, and if the
underlying sg is recycled to point elsewhere then sg_assign_page() will
still (correctly) clear this flag anyway. Trying to reason about this
beyond superficial API symmetry - i.e. why exactly would a caller need
to call it, and what would the implications be of failing to do so -
seems to lead straight to confusion.
In fact I'd be inclined to have sg_assign_page() be responsible for
setting the flag automatically as well, and thus not need
sg_dma_mark_bus_address() either, however I can see the argument for
doing it this way round to not entangle the APIs too much, so I don't
have any great objection to that.
Yes, I think you misunderstand what this is for. The SG_DMA_BUS_ADDDRESS
flag doesn't mark the segment for the page, but for the dma address. It
cannot be set in sg_assign_page() seeing it's not a property of the page
but a property of the dma_address in the sgl.
It's not meant for use by regular SG users, it's only meant for use
inside DMA mapping implementations. The purpose is to know whether a
given dma_address in the SGL is a bus address or regular memory because
the two different types must be unmapped differently. We can't rely on
the page because, as you know, many dma_map_sg() the dma_address entry
in the sgl does not map to the same memory as the page. Or to put it
another way: is_pci_p2pdma_page(sg->page) does not imply that
sg->dma_address points to a bus address.
Does that make sense?
Ah, you're quite right, in trying to take in the whole series at once
first thing in the morning I did fail to properly grasp that detail, so
indeed the sg_assign_page() thing couldn't possibly work, but as I said
that's fine anyway. I still think the lifecycle management is a bit off
though - equivalently, a bus address doesn't stop being a bus address,
so it would seem appropriate to update this flag appropriately whenever
sg_dma_address() is assigned to, and not when it isn't.
Thanks,
Robin.
