We've just started using the resticted memory feature (DMA_RESTRICTED_POOL)
which isolates a region for DMA memory for a particular device,
SWIOTLB-style.  This feature works with ARCH=arm64 but does not work on
ARCH=arm unless I apply the commit to select DMA_DIRECT_REMAP.  This seems
to hold from 5.15 to the present.

I've noticed that arm64 selects DMA_DIRECT_REMAP and arm does not and I'm
guessing that there may be a reason for this?
