Jakub Kicinski 8e4c62c7d9 page_pool: add DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING on all mappings
Commit c519fe9a4f ("bnxt: add dma mapping attributes") added
DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING to DMA attrs on bnxt. It has since spread
to a few more drivers (possibly as a copy'n'paste).

DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING only seems to matter on Sparc and PowerPC/cell,
the rarity of these platforms is likely why we never bothered adding
the attribute in the page pool, even though it should be safe to add.

To make the page pool migration in drivers which set this flag less
of a risk (of regressing the precious sparc database workloads or
whatever needed this) let's add DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING on all
page pool DMA mappings.

We could make this a driver opt-in but frankly I don't think it's
worth complicating the API. I can't think of a reason why device
accesses to packet memory would have to be ordered.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
