Looking through the attributes for DMA mappings, it appears that by default dma_map_sg will try and create a kernel accessible map of the page. We never access this, as we either have a struct page already or an iomap, so we can request that the dma mapper does not create one. Without a kernel map in place, one presumes the rest of the memory control attributes do not apply. We also explicitly control the caches around the mappings, so we can ask it not to bother synchronising itself.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
