Arnd,

What is the smaller value you are referring to in the below code? 
between *dev->dma_mask and size from DT? But overflow can still happen 
when size is to be calculated in arch_setup_dma_ops() for Non DT case or 
when DT size is configured to be equivalent of DMA_BIT_MASK(64) + 1. Can 
we discuss the code change you have in mind when you get a chance?
