Perfect! ACK!

Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for the explanation of the quirks and options.  I don't want to
drop support for any cards, I just want to make aacraid not rely on
the meaning of num_physpages.

The question aacraid wants to ask is "Does this device have to
do DAC to access memory?"  The answer can be affected by an IOMMU or
by memory layout.  It's far from clear what question num_physpages is
intended to answer; there are different bits of the kernel using it in
interesting ways.  But we do have a function designed to answer the
question you want to ask: dma_get_required_mask().  This may be an
expensive question to ask, so in the below patch I cache the answer in
the aac_dev.
