Commit 97303480 ("arm64: Increase the max granular size") increased the cache line size to 128 to match Cavium ThunderX, apparently for some performance benefit which could not be confirmed. This change, however, has an impact on the network packets allocation in certain circumstances, requiring slightly over a 4K page with a significant performance degradation. This patch reverts L1_CACHE_SHIFT back to 6 (64-byte cache line) while keeping ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN at 128. The cache_line_size() function was changed to default to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN in the absence of a meaningful CTR_EL0.CWG bit field. In addition, if a system with ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN < CTR_EL0.CWG is detected, the kernel will force swiotlb bounce buffering for all non-coherent devices since DMA cache maintenance on sub-CWG ranges is not safe, leading to data corruption.
