Just drop them. And then ->is_xyz() in a generic vops interface is about as ugly and non generic as you can get. dma_alloc_coherent is not performance critical, so you should rather change the interface that ->alloc_coherent is always called and the other handlers handle the !mmu case correctly. In fact they need that already I guess (e.g. on DMAR there is not really a nommu case) -Andi
