Wrong, as I've pointed out previously. The only memory which you're
allowed to sync is with memory which has been mapped with a dma_map_

dma_sync_single_for_* are only for use with the

Thanks for the answer. I do agree with you on that: I'll take a look
at arm64 code and I'll be glad to contribute with patches as soon as
possible.
Anyway I'd like to focus on a different aspect: I think that this
