From: Rob Herring <rob.herr...@calxeda.com> Atomic operations are undefined behavior on ARM for device or strongly ordered memory types. So use write-combine variants for mappings. This corresponds to normal, non-cacheable memory on ARM. For many other architectures, this change should not change the mapping type.
