The check cpu_needs_post_dma_flush() in mips_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu() and
the check !plat_device_is_coherent() in mips_dma_sync_sg_for_device()
can be moved outside the for loop.
As a side effect, this also avoids a GCC bug that caused kernel compile
to fail with the error:
arch/mips/mm/dma-default.c: In function 'mips_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu':
arch/mips/mm/dma-default.c:316:1: internal compiler error: in add_insn_before, at emit-rtl.c:3852
This gcc failure is seen in Code Sourcery toolchains [e.g. gcc version
4.7.2 (Sourcery CodeBench Lite 2012.09-99)] after commit "MIPS: Optimize
current_cpu_type() for better code."

Hi,
The patch looks good to me and it fixes the gcc problem indeed (the bug
is also present in gcc-4.7.3 from the 2013.05 release)

Thanks, the patch is now in the tree.
(Further sifting through patches is currently being hampered by X crashing
ever faster so I'm back to text console for now ...)
