Subject: [PATCH] swiotlb: fix unexpected swiotlb_alloc_coherent failures
The code refactoring by commit 0176adb00406 ("swiotlb: refactor coherent
buffer allocation") made swiotlb_alloc_buffer almost always failing due
to a thinko: namely, the function evaluates the dma_coherent_ok call
incorrectly and dealing as if it's invalid. This ends up with weird
errors like iwlwifi probe failure or amdgpu screen flickering.
This patch corrects the logic error.
