 dma_alloc_pages gives you cached memory, so you can't just use an

 Or dma_alloc_wc for a slightly different flavor of uncached. (both
 of the map to dma_alloc_attrs / dma_mmap_attrs eventually).

 I don't want uncached memory, I want non-coherent cached memory.

We don't have such a thing in the Linux API at all.

dma_pgprot(dev, vma->vm_page_prot, DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT);

That was giving me non-coherent cached memory, and now I don't have an alternative.
