I'm not sure that's the case - AFAICS a device could still have its own
local memory despite being behind an IOMMU relative to the rest of the
system. If it uses dma_declare_coherent() for that, the .alloc and .free
callbacks here might be bypassed by dma_{alloc,free}_attrs()
short-circuiting into dma_{alloc,release}_from_coherent(), but in the
case of dma_mmap_attrs() it hits the .mmap callback first and only falls
back to the from_coherent check in dma_common_mmap() if that isn't
implemented.
Maybe the right thing to do would be to move this check (with its
associated guards) out from dma_common_mmap() up to dma_mmap_attrs() to
be consistent with alloc/free; so that it doesn't need to be
reimplemented all over arch/{arm,arm64,mips} at all?
