These functions should perform the same cache synchronoization as calling
arc_dma_sync_single_for_{cpu,device} in addition to doing any required
address translation or mapping [1]. Ensure they actually do that by calling
arc_dma_sync_single_for_{cpu,device} instead of passing the dir argument
along to _dma_cache_sync.
The now unused _dma_cache_sync function is removed as well.
[1] in fact various drivers rely on that by passing DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC
to the map/unmap routines and doing the cache synchronization manually.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
