The ARM architecture provides a mechanism for deferring cache line invalidation in the case of map/unmap. This patch makes use of this mechanism to avoid unnecessary synchronization. A secondary effect of this change is that the portion of the page that has been synchronized for use by the CPU should be writable and could be passed up the stack (at least on ARM). The last bit that occurred to me is that on architectures where the sync_for_cpu call invalidates cache lines we were prefetching and then invalidating the first 128 bytes of the packet. To avoid that I have moved the sync up to before we perform the prefetch and allocate the skbuff so that we can actually make use of it.
