Subject: [PATCH 11/15] iio: buffer-dma: Boost performance using write-combine cache setting
We can be certain that the input buffers will only be accessed by
userspace for reading, and output buffers will mostly be accessed by
userspace for writing.
Therefore, it makes more sense to use only fully cached input buffers,
and to use the write-combine cache coherency setting for output buffers.
This boosts performance, as the data written to the output buffers does
not have to be sync'd for coherency. It will halve performance if the
userspace application tries to read from the output buffer, but this
should never happen.
Since we don't need to sync the cache when disabling CPU access either
for input buffers or output buffers, the .end_cpu_access() callback can
be dropped completely.
