Sorry for late comment. I wonder there is no problem in case that GPU or other DMA device tries to access this dma buffer after dma_buf_begin_cpu_access call.
I think in this case, they - GPU or DMA devices - would make a mess of the dma buffer while CPU is accessing the buffer.

This patch is in mainline already so if this is real problem then I think we sould choose,
1. revert this patch from mainline
2. make sure to prevent other DMA devices to try to access the buffer while CPU is accessing the buffer.

Thanks.
