Merge tag 'dma-mapping-5.10' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/dma-mapping
Pull dma-mapping updates from Christoph Hellwig:
- rework the non-coherent DMA allocator
- move private definitions out of <linux/dma-mapping.h>
- lower CMA_ALIGNMENT (Paul Cercueil)
- remove the omap1 dma address translation in favor of the common code
- make dma-direct aware of multiple dma offset ranges (Jim Quinlan)
- support per-node DMA CMA areas (Barry Song)
- increase the default seg boundary limit (Nicolin Chen)
- misc fixes (Robin Murphy, Thomas Tai, Xu Wang)
- various cleanups
