ACPI configurations can now mark devices as noncoherent,
support that choice.

NOTE: This is required to support USB on ARM Juno Development Board.

Hi Suravee,

The acpi_check_dma function has been removed in patch 6 of this patch set, why 
it is still be used
here, am I missing something? If the acpi_check_dma will be used in the future, 
personally I'd like

I think this patch just to let people know that there is
case that arch-specific cache maintenance is still needed
for ACPI (such as Juno board), and in the later patches will
cover this case.

acpi_check_dma() will be replaced by acpi_get_dma_attr(),
and in acpi_get_dma_attr() will cover that case and will
be easily understood. (Suravee, correct me if I'm wrong :) )

to use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI_CCA_REQUIRED) while not CONFIG_ARM64 macro here, 
or since _CCA attribute
is arch-specific, it's reasonable to leave the _CCA handling policy to the 
arch-specific code. For example,
with a link weak function like acpi_arch_check_dma() as a default handling if 
no arch-specific code
provided, the actual _CCA handling will be implemented in the ARM, Intel or 
other Arch if required.

Actually Intel platform don't need _CCA and it's coherent
in default, since _CCA is in ACPI spec, I would like it's
handled in ACPI core.

Thanks
Hanjun
