arc overrides the dir paramter of the dma_sync_single_for_device/
dma_sync_single_for_cpu calls.  My patches dropped that, and I have
restored that, and audit for the other architectures is pending.

That being said the existing arc code still looks rather odd as it
didn't do the same thing for the scatterlist versions of the calls.
I've thrown in a few patches into my new tree to make the sg versions
make the normal calls, and to clean up the area a bit.

Oops!  Thank you for all the debugging!
