It is more or less a copy of Hisilicon driver but with a heap definition fitting with STIH4xx SoC needs. I have just chnage the some function prefix from "hi6220" to "sti".
Thanks for your patches!
I was just wondering if you couldn't convert the HiSilicon driver into something like a 'simple-ion' driver, and have just the DT definitions as specifics? This would save a lot of code duplication, and keep it as a simple interface for common heaps like cma.
If there are any ST-specific requirements that are incompatible with the existing driver, it should be clearly documented out here I think.
