virt_to_page() is used in many place in mm so making it robust might
affect performance.  IMHO virt_to_page() seems too low-level as DMA
API.

If something like dma_virt_to_page(dev, cpu_addr) which can take a cpu
address returned by dma_xxx APIs was defined, MIPS can implement it
appropriately.

And then pgprot_noncached issues still exist...
