Without the above change or firmware setup, a DT with 'dma-coherent' and a kernel without it will be broken because the above register won't be configured, yet we'll be using coherent DMA ops. Originally when I added 'dma-coherent' (for Calxeda h/w), I had to do all the coherent path setup in the kernel to ensure the h/w setup was in-sync with the DMA ops. Nowadays, it's probably safe to assume the OS has coherent support, but can we say that for sure for all OSs? It also is going to depend if this register survives resets of the module. If not, then it needs to be done in the kernel. Rob
