We've had a similar patch to this out of tree for a while now. The big concern
I had was someone allocating with DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING and then trying to
dereference the CPU address and corrupting whatever data was there. We took the
heavy handed approach of ensuring that any access to the CPU address should cause
a fault.

Thanks,
Laura

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: dma-mapping: Allow CMA pages to not have a mapping

CMA buffers can get very large and if the CPU is never going
to write to a buffer anyway there is no need for a kernel mapping.
Allow the CPU side mapping to be removed/skipped if
DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING is passed in.

(Rebased based on previous patch)
