Yeah, the revert is basically my standard "this doesn't work,
discussion is still ongoing" thing.

I agree that the revert then brought back that DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC

So that part of commit aa6f8dcbab47 was probably all good.

I somehow missed that Oleksandr had a tested-by for that smaller change too.
