[PATCH v6 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 didn't got any feedback on the fifth version 5 monthsago, and then I
forgot to submit it to Russell patch system. In the meantime, there
was many changes in the arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c file. So I had to
rework the patch that's why I removed the reviewed flag from Catalin.

The last version was posted here:

Thanks,

Gregory
