Ah, sorry about the bug. Surely, the for_device needs to do the same
as the for_cpu. I've attached the updated patch.
We need to fix dmabounce.c anyway (even if we keep the sync_range API)
because drivers use the sync API to do a partial sync.

It would have been nice if you had opposed when this issue was
discussed...

DMA-API.txt: remove dma_sync_single_range description
As you said, the range API might be safer (since it requires more
information). However, there were already drivers using the
dma_sync_single_for API to do a partial sync (i.e. do a sync on
range).
Inspecting all the usage of the dma_sync_single_for API to see which
drivers to do a partial sync looks unrealistic. So keeping the
dma_sync_single_range_for API is pointless since drivers keep using
dma_sync_single_for API.
And the majority of implementations doesn't use 'range' information,
i.e., the implementation of dma_sync_single_for and
dma_sync_single_range_for API is identical.

Strict checking would be nice. If architectures can do such easily, we
had better to do so.
However, I'm not sure we need to take special care for the
dma_sync_single_for API. In general, misuse of the majority of the DMA
functions is deadly.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: dmabounce: fix partial sync in dma_sync_single_* API
Some network drivers do a partial sync with
dma_sync_single_for_{device|cpu}. The dma_addr argument might not be
the same as one as passed into the mapping API.
This adds some tricks to find_safe_buffer() for
dma_sync_single_for_{device|cpu}.
