Add helper that allows a driver to skip calling dma_unmap_*
if the DMA layer can guarantee that they are no-nops.

In terms of the unmap call itself, why don't we just use dma_skip_sync to short-cut dma_direct_unmap_*() and make sure it's as cheap as possible?

In terms of not having to unmap implying not having to store addresses at all, it doesn't seem super-useful when you still have to store them for long enough to find out that you don't :/

Thanks,
Robin.
