ARM: 6187/1: The v6_dma_inv_range() function must preserve data on SMP
A recent patch for DMA cache maintenance on ARM11MPCore added a write for ownership trick to the v6_dma_inv_range() function. Such operation destroys data already present in the buffer. However, this function is used with with dma_sync_single_for_device() which is supposed to preserve the existing data transfered into the buffer. This patch adds a combination of read/write for ownership to preserve the original data.
