From: Zhao Liu <[email protected]>
The use of kmap_atomic() is being deprecated in favor of
kmap_local_page()[1].
The main difference between atomic and local mappings is that local
mappings doesn't disable page faults or preemption.
In drm/i915/gem/selftests/i915_gem_coherency.c, functions cpu_set()
and cpu_get() mainly uses mapping to flush cache and assign the value.
There're 2 reasons why cpu_set() and cpu_get() don't need to disable
pagefaults and preemption for mapping:
1. The flush operation is safe for CPU hotplug when preemption is not
disabled. cpu_set() and cpu_get() call drm_clflush_virt_range() to use
CLFLUSHOPT or WBINVD to flush. Since CLFLUSHOPT is global on x86 and
WBINVD is called on each cpu in drm_clflush_virt_range(), the flush
operation is global and any issue with cpu's being added or removed
can be handled safely.
2. Any context switch caused by preemption or sleep (pagefault may
cause sleep) doesn't affect the validity of local mapping.
Therefore, cpu_set() and cpu_get() are functions where the use of
kmap_local_page() in place of kmap_atomic() is correctly suited.
Convert the calls of kmap_atomic() / kunmap_atomic() to
kmap_local_page() / kunmap_local().
