I'm not sure why this was delegated to me in patchwork, as it doesn't
appear to be FSL-specific...  I wish patchwork showed the history of
changes to a patch.

The above doesn't make it clear to me why dma_ops is NULL in non-host
modes, or why "direct" is necessarily the right ops -- what if swiotlb or
an iommu is needed?

If the problem is that you're using a "struct device" other than the
platform device, shouldn't that be fixed?  Or make sure that this other
"struct device" has been properly set up by arch code for doing DMA.

Don't add this newline
