So, you have non-coherent SMMUs too ;) The real problem is that the
SMMU's DMA mask is wrong (as it happens I've just given Will a patch to
fix that) - this is really just doing a whole bunch of unnecessary work
(two memory copies and two cache flushes, one of which isn't even
flushing the right area) to hide the problem. With an appropriate DMA
mask set, swiotlb_map_page becomes a no-op and we fall through to the
cache flush without ever allocating anything.
