[PATCH 14/14] common: DMA-mapping: add NON-CONSISTENT attribute

[Marek Szyprowski]

DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT lets the platform to choose to return either
consistent or non-consistent memory as it sees fit.  By using this API,
you are guaranteeing to the platform that you have all the correct and
necessary sync points for this memory in the driver should it choose to
return non-consistent memory.

 Since it is optional for platforms to implement DMA_ATTR_WRITE_COMBINE,
 those that do not will simply ignore the attribute and exhibit default
 behavior.
