Personally I'd combine this into the dma-direct condition.

Please read the code comment a couple lines above :D

And my point is that that logic is not actually useful, since it would be nonsensical for ops to set DMA_F_CAN_SKIP_SYNC if they don't even implement sync ops anyway.

If the intent of DMA_F_CAN_SKIP_SYNC is to mean "behaves like dma-direct", then "if (dma_map_direct(...) || ops->flags & DMA_F_CAN_SKIP_SYNC)" is an entirely logical and expected condition.

Thanks,
Robin.
