Sure, I can take care of that and separate them into two patches.

I'll take care of this.

I was trying to save some additional logic. But, think again I should 
not have done so. I'll fix this.

Actually, the reason I put the comment in the acpi_check_dma() is 
because the logic for determining the coherency is in this function, 
which is separate from the CCA parsing/detection logic.

I can probably just get rid of the inline and move the whole function 
into /driver/acpi/scan.c to make it more readable, and fix the typos.

This was because, at one point, we wanted to be able to differentiate 
between the case _CCA=0 and missing _CCA in ARM64, where we would 
support DMA (using arch-specific cache maintenance) if _CCA=0, and 
disable DMA when missing _CCA on ARM64.

It seems like the logic is now required (please see 
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb@vger.kernel.org/msg62735.html). 
So, we would need the true/false return, and the coherent variable to be 
able to differentiate between the two cases.

Please let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Suravee
