da_to_va op sis still there. I was proposing to remove this ops as we were discussing to register all carveouts accessed by coprocessor in rproc core carveout list.
This will allow to centralize all carveout definitions and to see all memory resources viewed by coprocessor (va, pa and da) via debugfs...
