Unfortunately this is far incomplete

... because size/mask passed here for PCI devices are meaningless.

For OF platforms, this is called via of_dma_configure(), that checks
dma-ranges of node that is *parent* for host bridge. Host bridge
currently does not control this at all.

In current device trees no dma-ranges is defined for nodes that are
parents to pci host bridges. This will make of_dma_configure() to fall
back to 32-bit size for all devices on all current platforms.  Thus
applying this patch will immediately break 64-bit dma masks on all
hardware that supports it.


Also related: dma-ranges property used by several pci host bridges is
*not* compatible with "legacy" dma-ranges parsed by of_get_dma_range() -
former uses additional flags word at beginning.
