This is ARM stuff at this stage and as such not a huge deal to me but I don't like seeing new arch specific API extending generic ones for drivers, it's just going to make it harder when those drivers start using them and those devices are use on other archs. There are people nowadays putting AXI bridges and the whole ARM paraphernalia of IP cores behind them on PowerPC cores for example and I can see that happening with x86 as well. In your case, I believe your are fixing the wrong problem anyways. The right approach would be instead to put all your buffer into an sglist and use dma_map/unmap_sg(). So again, I'm no ARM maintainer, but heh, you CCed me, and as such, for my part this is a nack...
