Who calls set_dma_ops()?
In the mach. initialization part?
What if a device driver does not want to use arch's dma_map_ops
when machine init procedure set a dma_map_ops?
Even though, may arch defiens their dma_map_ops in archdata of device structure,
I think it is not a good idea that is device structure contains a
pointer to dma_map_ops
that may not be common to all devices in a board.
I also think that it is better to attach and to detach dma_map_ops dynamically.
Moreover, a mapping is not permanent in our Exynos platform
because a System MMU may be turned off while runtime.
DMA API must come with IOMMU API to initialize IOMMU in runtime.
