[PATCH net-next v3 2/7] dma: avoid redundant calls for sync operations

[Alexander Lobakin <aleksander.lobakin@intel.com>]

Quite often, devices do not need dma_sync operations on x86_64 at least.
Indeed, when dev_is_dma_coherent(dev) is true and
dev_use_swiotlb(dev) is false, iommu_dma_sync_single_for_cpu()
and friends do nothing.

However, indirectly calling them when CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y consumes about
10% of cycles on a cpu receiving packets from softirq at ~100Gbit rate.
Even if/when CONFIG_RETPOLINE is not set, there is a cost of about 3%.

Add dev->skip_dma_sync boolean which is set during the device
initialization depending on the setup: dev_is_dma_coherent() for the
direct DMA, !(sync_single_for_device || sync_single_for_cpu) or the new
dma_map_ops flag, %DMA_F_CAN_SKIP_SYNC, advertised for non-NULL DMA ops.
Then later, if/when swiotlb is used for the first time, the flag
is turned off, from swiotlb_tbl_map_single().

On iavf, the UDP trafficgen with XDP_DROP in skb mode test shows
+3-5% increase for direct DMA.
