Re: [PATCH 4/8] ARM: dma-mapping: implement dma sg methods on top of generic dma ops

This patch converts all dma_sg methods to be generic (independent of the

No.  We really don't want to do this.  If we want to move the dsb() out
of the mapping functions (which I have a patch for) to avoid doing a
dsb() on each and every sg segment, then we must not use the generic
stuff.
