This patch series introduces support for RISC-V IOMMU architected
hardware into the Linux kernel.

The RISC-V IOMMU specification, which this series is based on, is
ratified and available at GitHub/riscv-non-isa [1].

At a high level, the RISC-V IOMMU specification defines:

1) Data structures:
  - Device-context: Associates devices with address spaces and holds
    per-device parameters for address translations.
  - Process-contexts: Associates different virtual address spaces based
    on device-provided process identification numbers.
  - MSI page table configuration used to direct an MSI to a guest
    interrupt file in an IMSIC.
2) In-memory queue interface:
  - Command-queue for issuing commands to the IOMMU.
  - Fault/event queue for reporting faults and events.
  - Page-request queue for reporting "Page Request" messages received
    from PCIe devices.
  - Message-signaled and wire-signaled interrupt mechanisms.
3) Memory-mapped programming interface:
  - Mandatory and optional register layout and description.
  - Software guidelines for device initialization and capabilities discovery.


This series introduces RISC-V IOMMU hardware initialization and complete
single-stage translation with paging domain support.

The patches are organized as follows:

Patch 1: Introduces minimal required device tree bindings for the driver.
Patch 2: Defines RISC-V IOMMU data structures, hardware programming interface
         registers layout, and minimal initialization code for enabling global
         pass-through for all connected masters.
Patch 3: Implements the device driver for PCIe implementation of RISC-V IOMMU
         architected hardware.
Patch 4: Introduces IOMMU interfaces to the kernel subsystem.
Patch 5: Implements device directory management with discovery sequences for
         I/O mapped or in-memory device directory table location, hardware
         capabilities discovery, and device to domain attach implementation.
Patch 6: Implements command and fault queue, and introduces directory cache
         invalidation sequences.
Patch 7: Implements paging domain, using highest page-table mode advertised
         by the hardware. This series enables only 4K mappings; complete support
         for large page mappings will be introduced in follow-up patch series.

Follow-up patch series, providing large page support and updated walk cache
management based on the revised specification, and complete ATS/PRI/SVA support,
will be posted to GitHub [2].

Changes from v5:
- rebase on master
- fix dc.tc.v check in riscv_iommu_iodir_update()
- fix to use list_for_each_entry (without _rcu) under lock
- editorial changes: comment spelling

Best regards,
