Really? It is the only condition that dma_info_to_prot() tests to
decide of IOMMU_CACHE is used or not, so you are saying that there is
a condition where a device can be attached to an iommu_domain and
dev_is_dma_coherent() returns the wrong information? How does
dma-iommu.c safely use it then?

In any case I still need to do something about the places checking
IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY and thinking that means IOMMU_CACHE
works. Any idea?
