From: Robin Murphy <robin.murphy@xxxxxxx> commit ac9c5e92dd15b9927e7355ccf79df76a58b44344 upstream. Although it's vanishingly unlikely that anyone would integrate an SMMU within a coherent interconnect without also making the pagetable walk interface coherent, the same effect happens if a coherent SMMU fails to advertise CTTW correctly. This turns out to be the case on some popular NXP SoCs, where VFIO started failing the IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY test, even though IOMMU_CACHE *was* previously achieving the desired effect anyway thanks to the underlying integration. While those SoCs stand to gain some more general benefits from a firmware update to override CTTW correctly in DT/ACPI, it's also easy to work around this in Linux as well, to avoid imposing too much on affected users - since the upstream client devices *are* correctly marked as coherent, we can trivially infer their coherent paths through the SMMU as well.
