Arch dma code should not implement DMA OPS, but use the generic

Thanks for your answer.
I am not sure to understand it though :-) because I can see a few
dma_map_ops implementations in arch code.
The last one left for the direct mapping are arm32 and parisc, and
they should go away eventually.
I tried to let dma_direct do the
work, I can't remember exactly what happened but it was not great :-).
I can give it a second try.
It really should not be hard. The dynamic mappings already work fine
as m68k is using the generic code. So the only thing you want is
to dip into the glonal pool for coherent allocations. For that you
need to select the DMA_GLOBAL_POOL config option and fill the pool
with dma_init_global_coherent().
