The code refactoring by commit0176adb004("swiotlb: refactor coherent buffer allocation") made swiotlb_alloc_buffer almost always failing due to a thinko: namely, the function evaluates the dma_coherent_ok call incorrectly and dealing as if it's invalid. This ends up with weird errors like iwlwifi probe failure or amdgpu screen flickering. This patch corrects the logic error.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
