GCE can only fetch the command buffer address from a 32-bit register.
Some SoCs support a 35-bit command buffer address for GCE, which
requires a right shift of 3 bits before setting the address into
the 32-bit register. A comment has been added to the header of
cmdq_get_shift_pa() to explain this requirement.
To prevent the GCE command buffer address from being DMA mapped beyond
its supported bit range, the DMA bit mask for the device is set during
initialization.
Additionally, to ensure the correct shift is applied when setting or
reading the register that stores the GCE command buffer address,
new APIs, cmdq_convert_gce_addr() and cmdq_revert_gce_addr(), have
been introduced for consistent operations on this register.
The variable type for the command buffer address has been standardized
to dma_addr_t to prevent handling issues caused by type mismatches.

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 reStructuredText 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.
