This is a bit nasty :/
I would consider setting the consistent DMA mask to 32-bit, and setting
the overall mask to 64-bit.
Seems like that would solve the problem?
Also, does this need to be rebased on top of what I just pushed upstream?

Jeff, ping on this one? This (or, one like it) really should make it
into 2.6.24..
