Minor point, but I don't see the need to have multiple dummy functions
with identical signatures - just have a generic dummy_sync_single and
assign it to both ops.

+static void __dummy_sync_sg_for_cpu(struct device *dev,

+static void __dummy_sync_sg_for_device(struct device *dev,

Ditto here with dummy_sync_sg.

Hi Robin,

Good point. I'll take care of that in V3.


I wonder if there's any argument for putting the dummy DMA ops somewhere
common, like drivers/base/dma-mapping.c?

Robin.

Hm.. If this approach will be adopted by other architectures, then it would make sense. Currently, this is only used by arm64. So, I think it is okay to leave this here for now.

Thanks,
Suravee
