From my understanding it means that your device / IP DMA accesses are coherent regarding the CPU point of view. I think it will be the case if GMAC is not behind any kind of IOMMU in the HW arch.

I don't know about this SMMU but the source does have some special 
conditions when device is dma-coherent.
