But that's a server chip, surely the DMA controller is fully cache coherent
as required by SBSA? (please?)

Maybe just a misannotation on the device node?

I'm fairly sure the Snapdragon 821 / msm8996 is not cache coherent.

I can only speculate on how much got reused between the two, but
as Falkor was released only after they had already given up on
the full-custom Kryo core, it's plausible that it incorporates bits from
that one. In particular the cache controller is probably easy to reuse
even if the rest of it was a new design.
