[PATCH 4.2 172/258] irqchip/gic-v3-its: Add missing cache flushes

Show all headers | View raw

4.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com>

commit 5a9a8915c8888b615521b17d70a4342187eae60b upstream.

When the ITS is configured for non-cacheable transactions, make sure
that the allocated, zeroed memory is flushed to the Point of
Coherency, allowing the ITS to observe the zeros instead of random
garbage (or even get its own data overwritten by zeros being evicted
from the cache...).
