+Subject: arm64: dma-mapping: always clear allocated buffers
+
+From: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com>
+
+commit 6829e274a623187c24f7cfc0e3d35f25d087fcc5 upstream.
+
+Buffers allocated by dma_alloc_coherent() are always zeroed on Alpha,
+ARM (32bit), MIPS, PowerPC, x86/x86_64 and probably other architectures.
+It turned out that some drivers rely on this 'feature'. Allocated buffer
+might be also exposed to userspace with dma_mmap() call, so clearing it
+is desired from security point of view to avoid exposing random memory
+to userspace. This patch unifies dma_alloc_coherent() behavior on ARM64
+architecture with other implementations by unconditionally zeroing
+allocated buffer.
