For a DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL transfer, the caches have to be cleaned
first to let the device see data written by the CPU, and invalidated
after the transfer to let the CPU see data written by the device.

riscv also invalidates the caches before the transfer, which does
not appear to serve any purpose.

Rationale makes sense to me..
