> Tegra194 and Tegra234 SoCs have the erratum that causes walk cache entries to
> not be invalidated correctly. The problem is that the walk cache index generated
> for IOVA is not same across translation and invalidation requests. This is leading
> to page faults when PMD entry is released during unmap and populated with
> new PTE table during subsequent map request. Disabling large page mappings
> avoids the release of PMD entry and avoid translations seeing stale PMD entry in
> walk cache.
> Fix this by limiting the page mappings to PAGE_SIZE for Tegra194 and
> Tegra234 devices. This is recommended fix from Tegra hardware design team.
