I would make the 'swiotlb_force' an enum. And then instead of this
being 'nobounce' just do the inverse of 'force', that is the
'noforce' would trigger this no bounce effect.

So:

enum {
	NORMAL,		/* Default - depending on the hardware DMA mask and such. */
	FORCE,		/* swiotlb=force */
	NO_FORCE,	/* swiotlb=noforce */
}
