The comment does not match the code: if the platform has no IOMMU
and the bus limit is smaller than the memory, dma_set_mask_and_coherent()
will fail, and the driver should instead ensure that the buffers are
allocated from the 32-bit area.
Alternatively, adjust the comment to explain that this is a limitation
in the driver that can be lifted if necessary.
