Hmm, VM_DMA would become generic flag?
AFAIU, maybe VM_DMA would be used only on ARM arch.
Right now yes, it will be used only on ARM architecture, but maybe other architecture will
start using it once it is available.
There's very little about the code in question that is ARM-specific to
begin with. I plan to adopt similar changes on SH once the work has
settled one way or the other, so we'll probably use the VMA flag there,
too.
