When it comes to DMA memory, talking about lowmem vs highmem is utterly
meaningless.

The lowmem/highmem split is entirely a software concept and is completely
adjustable.  An extreme example is that you can boot any platform with
more than 32MB of memory with 32MB of lowmem and the remainder as
highmem.
