H A Ddma.c4c612add Tue Jul 24 09:13:02 CDT 2018 Eugeniy Paltsev <Eugeniy.Paltsev@synopsys.com> ARC: dma [non IOC]: fix arc_dma_sync_single_for_(device|cpu)

ARC backend for dma_sync_single_for_(device|cpu) was broken as it was
not honoring the @dir argument and simply forcing it based on the call:
- arc_dma_sync_single_for_device(dir) assumed DMA_TO_DEVICE (cache wback)
- arc_dma_sync_single_for_cpu(dir) assumed DMA_FROM_DEVICE (cache inv)

This is not true given the DMA API programming model and has been
discussed here [1] in some detail.

Interestingly while the deficiency has been there forever, it only started
showing up after 4.17 dma common ops rework, commit a8eb92d02dd7
("arc: fix arc_dma_{map,unmap}_page") which wired up these calls under the
more commonly used dma_map_page API triggering the issue.

Fixes: commit a8eb92d02dd7 ("arc: fix arc_dma_{map,unmap}_page")
