I would reword this a little bit too
dma-mapping: implement DMA_ATTR_MMIO for dma_(un)map_page_attrs()
Make dma_map_page_attrs() and dma_map_page_attrs() respect
DMA_ATTR_MMIO.
DMA_ATR_MMIO makes the functions behave the same as dma_(un)map_resource():
- No swiotlb is possible
- Legacy dma_ops arches use ops->map_resource()
- No kmsan
- No arch_dma_map_phys_direct()
The prior patches have made the internl funtions called here support
DMA_ATTR_MMIO.
This is also preparation for turning dma_map_resource() into an inline
calling dma_map_phys(DMA_ATTR_MMIO) to consolidate the flows.

PPC is the only user of arch_dma_map_phys_direct() and it looks like
it should be called on MMIO memory. Seems like another inconsistency
with map_resource. I'd leave it like the above though for this series.

Probably written like:
if (ops->map_resource)
addr = ops->map_resource(dev, phys, size, dir, attrs);
else
addr = DMA_MAPPING_ERROR;
As I think some of the design here is to run the trace even on the
failure path?
Otherwise looks OK
