I agree that the dma/iommu integration is very problematic for drm (in particular, gpu drivers that use the iommu as an gpu mmu).. Really we need a way that a driver can opt-out of this, and access the cpu cache APIs directly, skipping the dma API entirely. But as it is, we've had to hack around the dma API. I'm not really sure this hack is any worse than abusing dma_(un)map_sg() for doing cache operations. I probably should have paid more attention and nak'd the dma/iommu integration before it landed. But given that now we are stuck in this situation, while I'm certainly interested if anyone has some ideas about how to let drivers opt out of the dma/iommu integration and bypass the dma API layer, I'm ok with replacing a hack with a less-bad hack.
