885014bcf2 MIPS: improve checks for noncoherent DMA
Only one MIPS development board actually supports enabling/disabling DMA
coherency at runtime, so it's not a good idea to push the overhead of
checking that configuration setting onto every other supported target as
well.

b6d92b4a6b MIPS: Add option to disable software I/O coherency.
Some MIPS controllers have hardware I/O coherency. This patch
detects those and turns off software coherency. A new kernel
command line option also allows the user to manually turn
software coherency on or off.
