We should only call dma_max_mapping_size for devices that have a DMA
mask set, otherwise we can run into a NULL pointer dereference that
will crash the system.

Also we need to do right shift to get the sectors from the size in
bytes, not a left shift.

Is it possible that a device defines a maximum mapping size but no DMA mask? Is the NULL pointer dereference that can happen an attempt to dereference dev->dma_ops? Have you considered to test the get_dma_ops() return value instead of dev->dma_mask? I think that would make this code easier to read.

Thanks,

Bart.
