    video: fbdev: neofb: use arch_phys_wc_add() and ioremap_wc() · f2081b81
    Luis R. Rodriguez authored
    Convert the driver from using the x86 specific MTRR code to
    the architecture agnostic arch_phys_wc_add(). arch_phys_wc_add()
    will avoid MTRR if write-combining is available, in order to
    take advantage of that also ensure the ioremap'd area is requested
    as write-combining.
    
    There are a few motivations for this:
    
    a) Take advantage of PAT when available
    
    b) Help bury MTRR code away, MTRR is architecture specific and on
       x86 its replaced by PAT
    
    c) Help with the goal of eventually using _PAGE_CACHE_UC over
       _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS on x86 on ioremap_nocache() (see commit
       de33c442
    
     titled "x86 PAT: fix performance drop for glx,
       use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() and
       pci_mmap_page_range()")
    
    The conversion done is expressed by the following Coccinelle
    SmPL patch, it additionally required manual intervention to
    address all the #ifdery and removal of redundant things which
    arch_phys_wc_add() already addresses such as verbose message
    about when MTRR fails and doing nothing when we didn't get
    an MTRR.
