   This checks whether the memory was allocated from the per-device
   coherent memory pool and if so, releases that memory.
   </p><p>

   Returns 1 if we correctly released the memory, or 0 if
   <code class="function">dma_release_coherent</code> should proceed with releasing memory from
   generic pools.
