4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Alexander Graf <agraf@xxxxxxx>
commit 524dabe1c68e0bca25ce7b108099e5d89472a101 upstream.
Commit b67a8b29df introduced logic to skip swiotlb allocation when all memory
is DMA accessible anyway.
While this is a great idea, __dma_alloc still calls swiotlb code unconditionally
to allocate memory when there is no CMA memory available. The swiotlb code is
called to ensure that we at least try get_free_pages().
Without initialization, swiotlb allocation code tries to access io_tlb_list
which is NULL. That results in a stack trace like this:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

Thankfully swiotlb code just learned how to not do allocations with the FORCE_NO
option. This patch configures the swiotlb code to use that if we decide not to
initialize the swiotlb framework.
Fixes: b67a8b29df ("arm64: mm: only initialize swiotlb when necessary")
