Apple A11 SoC comes with an NVMe controller that is similar to the
NVMe controller in M1, but less customized. Notably, it does not
have NVMMU or Linear SQ.
The controller is wired to an older variant of the SART address filter,
and uses an older variant of ASC mailbox, so add support for them too.
This variant of mailbox is also present on Apple T2 SoC.
This series has everything required to support NVMe on Apple A11 SoC.
However, due to RTKit protocol version support limitation, it will
only work when booted with at least iOS 14 iBoot.
Tested on A11 as well as M1 Pro (to make sure nothing broke).
Patch 1-2 adds support for the older mailbox
Patch 3-5 adds support for the older SART
Patch 6-7 adds support for the NVMe controller found in Apple A11 SoC
Patch 8-9 adds the required device tree nodes.
