Is it not possible that on some platforms, the arch or bus code may already have initialized the DMA masks? Isn't something like this (i.e., DMA bindings) planned for Device Tree? By eliminating the tests above and calling dma_set_coherent_mask or dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent unconditionally, this patch (and the next) would overwrite those initial settings. I don't know to what extent the same may be true for the other, platform-specific, drivers changed by this patch. But it's something to be aware of.
