You should have used consistent_alloc and never used consistent_sync()
in this case. FYI, consistent_sync() should never be used on
consistent_alloc()'ed buffers.....another tidbit for documentation.
The consistent_* are used to manage a variety of consistency related
features of non-coherent processors, not that you should necessarily
use all of them to solve a particular implementation requirement.
Thanks.
