Actually ... the stuff in lib/dma-direct.c seems to be just it, no ?

There's no cache flushing and there's no architecture hooks that I can
see other than the AMD security stuff which is probably fine.

Or am I missing something ?
You are missing the __phys_to_dma arch hook that allows architectures
to adjust the dma address.  Various systems have offsets, or even
multiple banks with different offsets there.  Most of them don't
use the dma-direct code yet (working on it), but there are a few
examples in the tree already.
