Can't we implement the first 2 using the next 2 and passing a 0 offset ?
I mean, we're going to go through a function pointer, it's not like
handling the offset was going to cost us something :-)

The only objection that comes to mind here is that generally, you know
that your platform is going to be coherent or not at compile time, and
you don't want the above at all when it is (or won't need swiotlb).

So maybe we could have a Kconfig trickery so that
CONFIG_PPC_DMA_NEED_SYNC_OPS is set when either non coherent DMA is
select'ed or swiotlb support is select'ed by one of the enabled
platform. So if I enable only powermac, I get neither and don't get the
bloody inlines :-)

Cheers,
Ben.
