I think you could probably just promote the dma_uses_io_tlb flag from 
SWIOTLB_DYNAMIC to a general SWIOTLB thing to serve this purpose now.

Similarly I don't think a new op is necessary now that we have 
dma_map_ops.flags. A simple static flag to indicate that sync may be 
skipped under the same conditions as implied for dma-direct - i.e. 
dev_is_dma_coherent(dev) && !dev->dma_use_io_tlb - seems like it ought 
to suffice.

Thanks,
Robin.
