So if you look at the final version of the header after the whole
series, what assumes a 1:1 mapping?  It all just is

	if (pfn_valid())
		local cache sync;
	else
		call into the arch code;

are you concerned that the local cache sync might have to be split
up more for a non-1:1 map in that case?  We could just move
the xen_dma_* routines into the arch instead of __xen_dma, but it
really helps to have a common interface header.
