I was too fast to reply this struct is wrong, it should be as this one:

struct dma_map_ops *dma_ops = {
	.alloc			= arm_coherent_dma_ops.arm_coherent_dma_alloc,
	.free			= arm_coherent_dma_ops.arm_coherent_dma_free,
	.mmap			= arm_coherent_dma_ops.arm_dma_mmap,
	.get_sgtable		= arm_coherent_dma_ops.arm_dma_get_sgtable,
	.map_sg			= arm_coherent_dma_ops.arm_dma_map_sg,
	.set_dma_mask		= arm_coherent_dma_ops.arm_dma_set_mask,
	.map_page 		= armada_xp_dma_map_page,
	.unmap_page 		= armada_xp_dma_unmap_page,
	.unmap_sg 		= arm_dma_ops.unmap_sg,
	.sync_single_for_cpu 	= armada_xp_dma_sync,
	.sync_single_for_device = armada_xp_dma_sync,
	.sync_sg_for_cpu 	= arm_dma_ops.sync_sg_for_cpu,
	.sync_sg_for_device 	= arm_dma_ops.sync_sg_for_device,
};

Thanks,
Gregory
