I'm just going to put Chia's review comment here since it sums
the issue rather nicely:
"(1) Semantically, a dma-buf is in DMA domain. CPU access from the
importer must be surrounded by {begin,end}_cpu_access. This gives the
exporter a chance to move the buffer to the CPU domain temporarily.
(2) When the exporter itself has other means to do CPU access, it is
only reasonable for the exporter to move the buffer to the CPU domain
before access, and to the DMA domain after access. The exporter can
potentially reuse {begin,end}_cpu_access for that purpose.
Because of (1), udmabuf does need to implement the
{begin,end}_cpu_access hooks. But "begin" should mean
dma_sync_sg_for_cpu and "end" should mean dma_sync_sg_for_device.
Because of (2), if userspace wants to continuing accessing through the
memfd mapping, it should call udmabuf's {begin,end}_cpu_access to
avoid cache issues."

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
