This patch adds buffer synchronization functions which invokes the correct API (PCI or DMA) to ensure synchronization is effective. Based on the TTM DMA cache helper patches by Lucas Stach.

On coherent platforms the sync_for_foo should be a noop. It's the dma api's job to encapsulate this knowledge so that drivers can be blissfully ignorant. The explicit is_coherent check makes this a bit leaky. And same comment that underlying the bus-specifics dma-mapping functions are identical.
I think you are right, the is_cpu_coherent check should not be needed here. I still think we should have separate paths for the PCI/DMA cases though, unless you can point me to a source that clearly states that the PCI API is deprecated and that DMA should be used instead.
