Yes, but why?

You don't like my convenience functions? :) I always thought
qcom_scm_get_response_buffer() read better than

(void *)cmd->buf + le32_to_cpu(cmd->resp_hdr_offset);

At the least the diff would be more concentrated on what really
is happening in this patch if we left these functions as is.

Please leave this as u32, the interface doesn't support anything
wider here so we shouldn't let this change on LPAE.

Yay we should delete secure_flush_area() too.

Hmm maybe we should pass __scm instead of dev? Is there any
advantage to that?

This was done so that we can remove the secure_flush mechanism, as we are the
only consumer (that I could find).  Using the DMA APIs would match the scm-64 so
it would be symmetric.  I'll add this to the commit message to give more reason
why the changes are being made.

If it was used in more than one function, yes.  But I felt that single use
functions were kind of a waste.  But this is in the eye of the beholder.

Ok.  I'll run that and see how it turns out.

Fair point.  I hadn't considered that.  Thanks for catching that.

Yes I was going to do a follow on to remove that.  I opted to not add this to
the set of patches.

If we needed access to something in the scm other than the device, yes.  If we
passed scm instead, we might be able to remove the singleton usage.  I'll look
and see if it makes sense.  Otherwise i'd leave the passing of the device.
