I see arch/arm64 kernel doesn't use dma range value parsed from dma-range property currently, I will check it more. It doesn't use dma_pfn_offset value calculated by the dma-ranges in dma mapping API. dma-ranges value should test properly before adding. Is there any use to add this dma-ranges properly if arch code doesn't support ??
