    I've only looked briefly, but this all seems reasonable. Adding Christoph
    to Cc here to draw his attention to it as he's done a lot of reworks on
    the dma-mapping interfaces recently.

    On a semi-related note, Thierry asked about one aspect of the dma-ranges
    property recently, which is the behavior of dma_set_mask() and related
    functions when a driver sets a mask that is larger than the memory
    area in the bus-ranges but smaller than the available physical RAM.
    As I understood Thierry's problem and the current code, the generic
    dma_set_mask() will either reject the new mask entirely or override
    the mask set by of_dma_configure, but it fails to set a correct mask
    within the limitations of the parent bus in this case.

    We had discussed and proposed patches for this in the past, but
    it seems that never got anywhere. Maybe now that a number of
    people have looked at this logic, we can figure it out for good.
