[Xen-devel] [RFC] virtio_ring: check dma_mem for xen_domain

[Peng Fan <peng.fan@xxxxxxx>]

on i.MX8QM, M4_1 is communicating with DomU using rpmsg with a fixed
address as the dma mem buffer which is predefined.

Without this patch, the flow is:
vring_map_one_sg -> vring_use_dma_api
                 -> dma_map_page
                       -> __swiotlb_map_page
                                ->swiotlb_map_page
                                ->__dma_map_area(phys_to_virt(dma_to_phys(dev, 
dev_addr)), size, dir);
However we are using per device dma area for rpmsg, phys_to_virt
could not return a correct virtual address for virtual address in
vmalloc area. Then kernel panic.

With this patch, vring_use_dma_api will return false, and
vring_map_one_sg will return sg_phys(sg) which is the correct phys
address in the predefined memory region.
vring_map_one_sg -> vring_use_dma_api
                 -> sg_phys(sg)
