It needs to bounce to somewhere.  And the dma-direct code is pretty
strict to require a zone it can do allocations from when setting the
dma mask.  As was the old ppc64 code, but not the ppc32 code that
allowed setting any DMA mask.  And something about the more strict
validation seem to trip up now.
