Subject: powerpc/ioda: Set "read" permission when "write" is set
From: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 6ecad912a0073c768db1491c27ca55ad2d0ee68f upstream.
Quite often drivers set only "write" permission assuming that this
includes "read" permission as well and this works on plenty of
platforms. However IODA2 is strict about this and produces an EEH when
"read" permission is not set and reading happens.
This adds a workaround in the IODA code to always add the "read" bit
when the "write" bit is set.
Fixes: 10b35b2b7485 ("powerpc/powernv: Do not set "read" flag if direction==DMA_NONE")
