If we got back an allocation that wasn't inside the support coherent mask,
retry the allocation using GFP_DMA.

Based on the x86 code.

Shouldn't it be: phys_to_dma(dev, phys) + size - 1 <= dev->coherent_dma_mask ?

Yes, I think it should.  The existing code was blindly copy and pasted
from x86.

+	if (page && !dma_coherent_ok(dev, page_to_phys(page), size)) {
+		__free_pages(page, page_order);
+		page = NULL;
+
+		if (dev->coherent_dma_mask < DMA_BIT_MASK(32) &&
+		    !(gfp & GFP_DMA)) {
+			gfp = (gfp & ~GFP_DMA32) | GFP_DMA;
+			goto again;

Shouldn't we limit number of attempts?

We only retty once anyway, due to the !GFP_DMA check first and then
ORing in GFP_DMA.
