OK, so just call `dma_set_mask_and_coherent(&pdev->dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(64));`
regardless of 32- or 64-bit dma capability, *do* check the return value,
and it should *not* fail on 32-bit systems.

I'll do that in v6 (should go out in early January '22, since I'm traveling
with only occasional email access at the moment).
