If force_aperture is flase the dma-api code needs to check if remapping
is required at all. It performs the following checks:

	* Does the physical address of the buffer not overlap with the
	  aperture?
	* Fits the buffer into the device's dma address mask?

If both questions are answered with yes no remapping is required and
dma-api just returns the physical address. Otherwise it calls into the
dma-api to create a mapping.
