[PATCH v4 0/2] Fix dma mapping when the cache is coherent

Hi,

These two patches fixes the dma mapping functions when the system is
cache coherent. The first one allows to fix an issue we have on Armada
375/38x with the PL310 that's why it is tagged for stable too.

I was about ti submit it to Russell King's patch system but when I
rebased it on v4.3-rc1 I got a merge conflict due too the commit
21caf3a765b0 "ARM: 8398/1: arm DMA: Fix allocation from CMA for
coherent DMA". The resolution would be OK so unless I missed something
I will submit it to the patch system in a few days.

Thanks,

Gregory
