Laura Abbott 204f672255 staging: android: ion: Use CMA APIs directly
When CMA was first introduced, its primary use was for DMA allocation
and the only way to get CMA memory was to call dma_alloc_coherent. This
put Ion in an awkward position since there was no device structure
readily available and setting one up messed up the coherency model.
These days, CMA can be allocated directly from the APIs. Switch to using
this model to avoid needing a dummy device. This also mitigates some of
the caching problems (e.g. dma_alloc_coherent only returning uncached
memory).

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
