dma_alloc_coherent, stuffing that into dma_declare_coherent_memory,
which then ioremaps the memory obtained from dma_alloc_coherent, and
is then handed out via a subsequent dma_alloc_coherent call.

So what we end up with is the kernel mapping (normal memory, cacheable),
the DMA coherent mapping (normal memory, non-cacheable) but with the
same shared-ness as the kernel mapping, and finally the ioremap mapping
(device, shared).  So three aliasing mappings all with different
attributes.
