staging: vc04_services: Fix bulk cache maintenance
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
vchiq_arm supports transfers less than one page and at arbitrary
alignment, using the dma-mapping API to perform its cache maintenance
(even though the VPU drives the DMA hardware). Read (DMA_FROM_DEVICE)
operations use cache invalidation for speed, falling back to
clean+invalidate on partial cache lines, with writes (DMA_TO_DEVICE)
using flushes.

If a read transfer has ends which aren't page-aligned, performing cache
maintenance as if they were whole pages can lead to memory corruption
since the partial cache lines at the ends (and any cache lines before or
after the transfer area) will be invalidated. This bug was masked until
the disabling of the cache flush in flush_dcache_page().

Honouring the requested transfer start- and end-points prevents the
corruption.
