From: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@xxxxxxxxxx> The powerpc-specific __pci_mmap_set_pgprot() does two things: 1) Disables write combining for I/O port space mappings This only affects procfs mappings. The pci_mmap_resource() sysfs path only requests write combining for resources with IORESOURCE_PREFETCH set, which doesn't include I/O resources. The only way to request write combining for I/O port space mappings was via the PCIIOC_WRITE_COMBINE ioctl and the proc_bus_pci_mmap() path, and we recently changed that path to ignore write combining for I/O, so this code in powerpc is no longer needed. 2) Automatically enables write combining for mappings of prefetchable resources, even if not requested by the user Both procfs (via PCIIOC_MMAP_IS_MEM and PCIIOC_WRITE_COMBINE ioctls) and sysfs (via "resourceN_wc" files, which are created for resources with IORESOURCE_PREFETCH) provide ways for the user to map PCI memory space with write combining. Users that desire write combining should use one of those ways instead of relying on powerpc-specific behavior. Remove the powerpc-specific __pci_mmap_set_pgprot(). The user-visible effect of this change is that users mapping prefetchable PCI memory space via procfs without PCIIOC_WRITE_COMBINE or via sysfs "resourceN" (not "resourceN_wc") will get regular uncacheable mappings instead of the write combining mappings they used to get. The new behavior matches the behavior on all other arches that support write combining mapping.
