Great, thanks.

Sure, I've added a comment that explains the use of "cont" for 
clarification.

Indeed you're right; fixed. With only 2-level tables it might be 
feasible to keep track of all the VAs as well, and break the strict 
dma==phys dependency, but since things work OK as-is I'll put that idea 
aside for a slow day...

So if you map 4K, unmap it, then try to map 1MB of your now-free IOVA 
space over a pointer to an empty level 2 table, that always 
unconditionally fails? I'm pretty sure you don't want that ;)

With TLBI_ON_MAP you might not have hit the TLB conflict which revealed 
the bug in the first place, but the rest of that patch still very much 
applies (i.e. not leaking the table).

In the case of the SMMU it's probably a needless performance hit but 
it's not going to cause any errors. I've come up with an idea to try 
optimising out redundant syncs as generally undesirable, which I'll 
post, but if back-to-back syncs are really a problem for your hardware 
then it's probably worth making the driver specifically detect and avoid 
that condition.

OK, now I'm embarrassed for missing that, given the time I spent 
obsessively rewriting this bit about 20 times just because I was sure it 
was possible to do without any ifs, breaks, or repetitions :D

Since "1" and "2" are used to represent the values 1 and 2, plus we use 
the level directly in arithmetic all over the place, I don't think an 
enum is really semantically appropriate or necessary. The lvl variable 
is only initialised to 0 in this one case because of the aforementioned 
obsessively-clean loop requiring the increment at the start of each 
iteration. With your change to the loop I can put ARM_V7S_PTE_IS_TABLE 
back to being predicated on lvl == 1 specifically, and get rid of this 
last trace of the whole "pretend TTBRn is a 'level 0' entry" bad idea 
that I had at one point.
