This patch removes the need for the offset parameter in dma bounce
functions. This is required to let dma-mapping framework on ARM
architecture to use common, generic dma_map_ops based dma-mapping
helpers.
Background and more detailed explaination:
dma_*_range_* functions are available from the early days of the dma
mapping api. They are the correct way of doing a partial syncs on the
buffer (usually used by the network device drivers). This patch changes
only the internal implementation of the dma bounce functions to let
them tunnel through dma_map_ops structure. The driver api stays
unchanged, so driver are obliged to call dma_*_range_* functions to
keep code clean and easy to understand.
The only drawback from this patch is reduced detection of the dma api
abuse. Let us consider the following code:
dma_addr = dma_map_single(dev, ptr, 64, DMA_TO_DEVICE);
dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu(dev, dma_addr+16, 0, 32, DMA_TO_DEVICE);
Without the patch such code fails, because dma bounce code is unable
to find the bounce buffer for the given dma_address. After the patch
the above sync call will be equivalent to:
dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu(dev, dma_addr, 16, 32, DMA_TO_DEVICE);
which succeeds.
I don't consider this as a real problem, because DMA API abuse should be
caught by debug_dma_* function family. This patch lets us to simplify
the internal low-level implementation without chaning the driver visible
API.
