Sparse warns us off:
drivers/xen/swiotlb-xen.c:506:1: warning: symbol 'xen_swiotlb_map_sg' was not declared. Should it be static?
drivers/xen/swiotlb-xen.c:534:1: warning: symbol 'xen_swiotlb_unmap_sg' was not declared. Should it be static?and it looks like we do not need this function at all.

With this patch we provide the functionality to initialize the
Xen-SWIOTLB late in the bootup cycle - specifically for
Xen PCI-frontend. We still will work if the user had
supplied 'iommu=soft' on the Linux command line.Note: We cannot depend on after_bootmem to automatically
determine whether this is early or not. This is because
when PCI IOMMUs are initialized it is after after_bootmem but
before a lot of "other" subsystems are initialized.CC: FUJITA Tomonori
[v1: Fix smatch warnings]
[v2: Added check for xen_swiotlb]
[v3: Rebased with new xen-swiotlb changes]
[v4: squashed xen/swiotlb: Depending on after_bootmem is not correct in]

This patchset:
PV guests under Xen are running in an non-contiguous memory architecture.
When PCI pass-through is utilized, this necessitates an IOMMU for
translating bus (DMA) to virtual and vice-versa and also providing a
mechanism to have contiguous pages for device drivers operations (say DMA
operations).Specifically, under Xen the Linux idea of pages is an illusion. It
assumes that pages start at zero and go up to the available memory. To
help with that, the Linux Xen MMU provides a lookup mechanism to
translate the page frame numbers (PFN) to machine frame numbers (MFN)
and vice-versa. The MFN are the "real" frame numbers. Furthermore
memory is not contiguous. Xen hypervisor stitches memory for guests
from different pools, which means there is no guarantee that PFN==MFN
and PFN+1==MFN+1. Lastly with Xen 4.0, pages (in debug mode) are
allocated in descending order (high to low), meaning the guest might
never get any MFN's under the 4GB mark.Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
