I think the uncached mapping is not the right thing for arm/arm64. First
of all, pgprot_noncached() gives us Strongly Ordered (Device memory)
semantics together with not allowing unaligned accesses. I suspect the
semantics are different on x86.
The second, more serious problem, is that I can't find any place where
the caches are flushed for the page mapped on fault. When a page is
allocated, assuming GFP_ZERO, only the caches are guaranteed to be
zeroed. Exposing this subsequently to user space as uncached would allow
the user to read stale data prior to zeroing. The arm64
set_direct_map_default_noflush() doesn't do any cache maintenance.
