Although this is a start, I don't think it is sufficient.

As far as I can tell, there are many missing calls to debug_dma_*() in
the various MIPS commone and sub-architecture DMA code.

Really you (or someone) needs to look at *all* the functions in
arch/mips/asm/dma-mapping.h, and arch/mips/mm/dma-default.c and find
places missing a debug_dma_*().

Is it correct to assume that this patch is not needed on MIPS until
debug_dma interfaces get added to MIPS common and sub-architecture DMA
code.

No, you have a false predicate here.

debug_dma_* *is* already mostly added. The problem is that it is incomplete. That is the nature of the problem. Your patch makes it slightly better, but doesn't fully fix the problems.



When I didn't see dma_map_page() in arch/mips/include/asm/dma-mapping.h
defined, and just an extern, I incorrectly assumed, it is getting picked
up from <asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h>, hence the need for this
patch in the first place.
