arch_dma_mmap_pgprot is used for two things:
1) to override the "normal" uncached page attributes for mapping
memory coherent to devices that can't snoop the CPU caches
2) to provide the special DMA_ATTR_WRITE_COMBINE semantics on older
arm systems and some mips platforms
Replace one with the pgprot_dmacoherent macro that is already provided
by arm and much simpler to use, and lift the DMA_ATTR_WRITE_COMBINE
handling to common code with an explicit arch opt-in.

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.
