Lucas Stach ca0e68e21a drm/prime: skip CPU sync in map/unmap dma_buf
Dma-bufs should already be device coherent, as they are only pulled in the
CPU domain via the begin/end cpu_access calls. As we cache the mapping set
up by dma_map_sg a CPU sync at this point will not actually guarantee proper
coherency on non-coherent architectures, so we can as well stop pretending.

This is an important performance fix for architectures which need explicit
cache synchronization and userspace doing lots of dma-buf imports.
Improves Weston on Etnaviv performance 5x, where before this patch > 90%
of Weston CPU time was spent synchronizing caches for buffers which are
already device coherent.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
