the problem is that dma_sync_single_for_cpu() doesn't flush anything
for IP22, because it only flushes for CPUs which do speculation. So
either MIPS arch_sync_dma_for_cpu() should always flush or sgiseeq
needs to use a different sync funktion, when it wants to re-read descriptors
from memory.

Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessarily a
good idea.                                                [ RFC1925, 2.3 ]
