If the limit is by the interconnect/bus, then the limit will affect all
devices connected to that bus, i.e. both the PCIe controller and the AHCI
controller, and using "dma-ranges" in that case is of course correct.

I guess I'm mostly surprised that i.MX8QM doesn't already have this
property defined in its device tree.

Anyway, please send a v5 of this series without the patch in $subject,
and we should be able to queue it up for 6.12.


Kind regards,
Niklas
