Bug description:
  To improve PCI performance on certain arm64 AWS instance types, enable
  arch_can_pci_mmap_wc() via the patch:

      From: Clint Sbisa <csb...@amazon.com>
      Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Enable PCI write-combine resources under sysfs

      https://lore.kernel.org/linux-
  pci/20200831151827.pumm2p54fyj7f...@amazon.com/

  --------------

  [Impact]

   * AWS requires PCI-write-combine be enabled for arm64 via this one-
  line patch, to effect a significant performance improvement on certain
  AWS arm64 instance types.

   * After considerable discussion, upstream indicates that this patch
  will be accepted into mainline[0] once additional documentation
  details get added to the commit description.

   * Applying this patch to linux-aws affects only AWS arm64 instance
  types.

  [Test Case]

   * Has been performance-tested by AWS; smoke-tested by me.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Low.
