Hi, This series cleans up Ion a bit to be more in line with existing standards for caching and dma mapping. The most controversial part of this is probably going to be the first patch. Ion takes quite a few liberties with how the DMA APIs are used for cache syncing. dma_sync_sg is used without calling dma_map first. There isn't a good way to get the cache synchronization with the DMA APIs. The behavior of Ion is closer to the DRM framework which uses its own private cache APIs for synchronization so I took that approach. Assuming the approach of the first patch is appropriate, the next two patches are fairly simple. dma_buf added support for a sync ioctl. Ion has a similar ioctl already so this fixes the Ion APIs to be compatible with the dma_buf ioctl. My plan would be to put a timeline on deprecation for the old Ion sync ioctl. The map_dma_buf calls were also missing calls to the underlying DMA APIs so the final patch in the series adds the appropriate calls. Feedback is appreciated.
