------------------------------------------------------
Subject: dma-debug: allow DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL mappings to be synced with DMA_FROM_DEVICE and
From: Krzysztof Halasa <khc@xxxxxxxxx>

There is no need to perform full BIDIR sync (copying the buffers in case
of swiotlb and similar schemes) if we know that the owner (CPU or device)
hasn't altered the data.

Addresses the false-positive reported at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14169
