arch_dma_mmap_pgprot is used for two things:
1) to override the "normal" uncached page attributes for mapping
memory coherent to devices that can't snoop the CPU caches
2) to provide the special DMA_ATTR_WRITE_COMBINE semantics on older
arm systems
Replace one with the pgprot_dmacoherent macro that is already provided
by arm and much simpler to use, and lift the DMA_ATTR_WRITE_COMBINE
handling to common code with an explicit arch opt-in.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
