[PATCH 11/21] mips: dma-mapping: skip invalidating before bidirectional DMA

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd at arndb.de>

Some architectures that need to invalidate buffers after bidirectional
DMA because of speculative prefetching only do a simpler writeback
before that DMA, while architectures that don't need to do the second
invalidate tend to have a combined writeback+invalidate before the
DMA.

The behavior on mips is slightly inconsistent, as it always
does the invalidation before bidirectional DMA and conditionally
does it a second time.

In order to make the behavior the same as the rest, change it
so that there is exactly one invalidation here, either before
or after the DMA.
