Pull DMA mask updates from Russell King:
 "This series cleans up the handling of DMA masks in a lot of drivers,
  fixing some bugs as we go.

  Some of the more serious errors include:
   - drivers which only set their coherent DMA mask if the attempt to
     set the streaming mask fails.
   - drivers which test for a NULL dma mask pointer, and then set the
     dma mask pointer to a location in their module .data section -
     which will cause problems if the module is reloaded.

  To counter these, I have introduced two helper functions:
   - dma_set_mask_and_coherent() takes care of setting both the
     streaming and coherent masks at the same time, with the correct
     error handling as specified by the API.
   - dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent() which resolves the problem of
     drivers forcefully setting DMA masks.  This is more a marker for
     future work to further clean these locations up - the code which
     creates the devices really should be initialising these, but to fix
     that in one go along with this change could potentially be very
     disruptive.

  The last thing this series does is prise away some of Linux's addition
  to "DMA addresses are physical addresses and RAM always starts at
  zero".  We have ARM LPAE systems where all system memory is above 4GB
  physical, hence having DMA masks interpreted by (eg) the block layers
  as describing physical addresses in the range 0..DMAMASK fails on
  these platforms.  Santosh Shilimkar addresses this in this series; the
  patches were copied to the appropriate people multiple times but were
  ignored.

  Fixing this also gets rid of some ARM weirdness in the setup of the
  max*pfn variables, and brings ARM into line with every other Linux
  architecture as far as those go"
