Yes, reads translate to DMA_FROM_DEVICE.

In that case the warnings are perfectly valid because the I/O patterns
will create data corruption on non-coherent architectures.  For direct
I/O from userspace the kernel can't prevent it, but for raid1 we should
be able to do something better.  As raid1_sync_request is a convoluted
and undocumented mess I don't have a straigh shot answer to what it is
doing (wrong) and how to fix it unfortunately.
