[PATCH] SAUCE: crypto: thunderx_zip: Fix fallout from CONFIG_VMAP_STACK

[Paolo Pisati]

From: Jan Glauber <jglauber at cavium.com>

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1755073

Enabling virtual mapped kernel stacks breaks the thunderx_zip
driver. On compression or decompression the executing CPU hangs
in an endless loop. The reason for this is the usage of __pa()
by the driver that does not work for an address that is
not part of the 1:1 mapping.

The zip driver allocates a result struct on the stack and needs
to tell the hardware the pysical address within this struct
that is used to signal the completion of the request.
With CONFIG_VMAP_STACK __pa() is no longer usable for a stack address.

As the hardware gets the wrong address it writes the result byte
to an arbitrary address. The zip driver then waits forever for the
completion byte to contain a non-zero value.

Allocating the result struct from 1:1 mapped memory resolves this
bug.

Note that there are more outstanding issues with the used completion
mechanism:
- volatile is used for a bitfield
- no barriers at all re used
- the completion loop should have a retry counter and not run forever
- polling for the result should use a delay
- interrupts for completion and error notification should be used
