Sure.

Yes, basically when _CCA=0.

OK.

Because we are calling:
   acpi_create_platform_device()
     |--> platform_device_register_device_full()
       |-->platform_device_alloc()

This creates platform_device, which allocate a new platform_device->dev. 
This is not the same as the original acpi_device->dev that was created 
during acpi_add_single_object(). So, we have to set up the device 
coherency again.

I made a mistake here. This logic should also call arch_setup_dma_ops() 
when cca_seen=0 and coherent=1 (e.g. when _CCA is not required and 
default to coherent when it is missing). The current logic doesn't do that.

What about:
	if (coherent ||
	    (adev->flags.cca_seen &&
			IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI_SUPPORT_CCA_ZERO))
		arch_setup_dma_ops(dev, 0, 0, NULL, coherent);

This should not affect x86 since arch_setup_dma_ops() is currently not 
implement for x86, and default to NOP (see include/linux/dma-mapping.h). 
  Also, on x86, _CCA is not required and default to 1 if missing.
