In order for the Braswell top-level PD to remain the same from the time of request construction to its submission onto HW, as we may be asynchronously rewriting the page tables (thus changing the expected register state after having already stored the old addresses in the request), the top level PD must be preallocated. So wave goodbye to our lazy allocation of those 4x2 pages. v2: A little bit of write-flushing required (presumably it always has been required, but now we are more susceptible and it is showing up!) v3: Put back the forced-PD-reload on every batch, we can't survive without it and explicitly marking the context for PD reload makes Braswell turn nasty.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
