I think the use of dma_cache_sync in this driver is just a bug:

        cmd->SCp.dma_handle = dma_map_single(&wd->pdev->dev, cmd->sense_buffer,
                        SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, DMA_FROM_DEVICE);
        dma_cache_sync(&wd->pdev->dev, cmd->sense_buffer,
                        SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, DMA_FROM_DEVICE);

dma_cache_sync only makes sense with buffers allocated through
dma_alloc_noncoherent(), which this one is not. I suspect we can just
remove the call to dma_cache_sync here, in particular since the
buffer is passed to the device next, and dma_map_single has
already done all the necessary synchronization.
