Yeah, essentially we need to handle the following cases:

1. Static DMA-buf and the exporter doesn't want caching.
2. Static DMA-buf and the exporter does want caching.
3. Dynamic DMA-buf and we use caching as a workaround for smooth transition.
4. Dynamic DMA-buf and caching doesn't make much sense.

So far we only support 3 & 4 and not 1 & 2. Could be that this gets much 
more complicated, but I would only want to add this complicated code if 
we really find that we need it.

Thanks for the review, next question how do we merge this? Through drm-misc?

Christian.
