We used to restrict both streaming and coherent DMA masks to 32 bits.
Now we will only restrict coherent DMA to 32 bits.

So in essence this change removes a restriction on the streaming DMA
mask, right?

And I guess bt1 is the only driver where this will make a difference
(after the next patch) because no other dwc drivers set their own DMA
masks?
