64d70fe5d3 common: DMA-mapping: add NON-CONSISTENT attribute
DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT lets the platform to choose to return either
consistent or non-consistent memory as it sees fit.  By using this API,
you are guaranteeing to the platform that you have all the correct and
necessary sync points for this memory in the driver.

8a4134322b common: DMA-mapping: add WRITE_COMBINE attribute
DMA_ATTR_WRITE_COMBINE specifies that writes to the mapping may be
buffered to improve performance. It will be used by the replacement for
ARM/ARV32 specific dma_alloc_writecombine() function.

1ed6af7344 powerpc/cell: Add DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING dma attribute and use in Cell IOMMU code
Introduce a new dma attriblue DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING to use weak ordering
on DMA mappings in the Cell processor. Add the code to the Cell's IOMMU
implementation to use this code.

Dynamic mappings can be weakly or strongly ordered on an individual basis
but the fixed mapping has to be either completely strong or completely weak.
This is currently decided by a kernel boot option (pass iommu_fixed=weak
for a weakly ordered fixed linear mapping, strongly ordered is the default).

74bc7ceebf dma: add dma_*map*_attrs() interfaces
Introduce new interfaces, dma_*map*_attrs(), for passing architecture-specific
attributes when memory is mapped and unmapped for DMA.  Give the interfaces
default implementations which ignore attributes.  Also introduce the
dma_{set|get}_attr() interfaces for setting and retrieving individual
attributes.  Define one attribute, DMA_ATTR_WRITE_BARRIER, in anticipation of
its use by ia64/sn.  Select whether architectures implement arch-specific
versions of the dma_*map*_attrs() interfaces via HAVE_DMA_ATTRS in Kconfig.

[markn@au1.ibm.com: dma_{set,get}_attr() have to be static inline]
