But is very wrong unfortunately.

This is not how the DMA API works.  You can only call
dma_sync_single_for_{device,cpu} with the direction that the memory
was mapped.  It then transfer ownership to the device or the cpu,
and the ownership of the memory is a fundamental concept that allows
for reasoning about the caching interaction.
