iommu/io-pgtable-arm: Unmap and free table when overwriting with block When installing a block mapping, we unconditionally overwrite a non-leaf PTE if we find one. However, this can cause a problem if the following sequence of events occur: (1) iommu_map called for a 4k (i.e. PAGE_SIZE) mapping at some address - We initialise the page table all the way down to a leaf entry - No TLB maintenance is required, because we're going from invalid to valid. (2) iommu_unmap is called on the mapping installed in (1) - We walk the page table to the final (leaf) entry and zero it - We only changed a valid leaf entry, so we invalidate leaf-only (3) iommu_map is called on the same address as (1), but this time for a 2MB (i.e. BLOCK_SIZE) mapping) - We walk the page table down to the penultimate level, where we find a table entry - We overwrite the table entry with a block mapping and return without any TLB maintenance and without freeing the memory used by the now-orphaned table. This last step can lead to a walk-cache caching the overwritten table entry, causing unexpected faults when the new mapping is accessed by a device. One way to fix this would be to collapse the page table when freeing the last page at a given level, but this would require expensive iteration on every map call. Instead, this patch detects the case when we are overwriting a table entry and explicitly unmaps the table first, which takes care of both freeing and TLB invalidation.
