    net/smc: remove redundant dma sync ops · 6d52e2de
    Guangguan Wang authored
    smc_ib_sync_sg_for_cpu/device are the ops used for dma memory cache
    consistency. Smc sndbufs are dma buffers, where CPU writes data to
    it and PCIE device reads data from it. So for sndbufs,
    smc_ib_sync_sg_for_device is needed and smc_ib_sync_sg_for_cpu is
    redundant as PCIE device will not write the buffers. Smc rmbs
    are dma buffers, where PCIE device write data to it and CPU read
    data from it. So for rmbs, smc_ib_sync_sg_for_cpu is needed and
    smc_ib_sync_sg_for_device is redundant as CPU will not write the buffers.
