Hmm that sounds like a good idea but I was unable to find a place for this.

riscv/mm/dma-noncoherent.c are just a bunch of callbacks, there is no initialisation
function that will always run on every boot. riscv_noncoherent_supported is only
called conditionally.

Perhaps I can add a initcall in dma-noncoherent.c but it seems to be a little bit
overkilling.

Actually I’d prefer to have a config option for the default value but it seems like
it’s not in Christoph’s flavour.

Thanks
