Right, it seems of_dma_is_coherent() has baked in the assumption that
devices are non-coherent unless explicitly marked as coherent.

Which is wrong on all or at least most existing powerpc systems
according to Ben.

Fixing it at the source seems like the best option to prevent future
breakage.

So I guess that would mean making of_dma_is_coherent() return true/false
based on CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE on powerpc.

We could do it like below, which would still allow the dma-coherent
property to work if it ever makes sense on a future powerpc platform.

I don't really know any of this embedded stuff well, so happy to take
other suggestions on how to handle this mess.

cheers
