it does check.  the patch replaces the code like

	if (! pci_dma_support(pci, XXXX))
		error;
	pci_set_dma_mask(pci, XXXX);

with
	if (pci_dma_set_mask(pci, XXXX))
		error;

(there is one place which doesn't check, but it's in the resume
 callback.)

the problem is that in the former version only
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask() was called without pci_dma_set_mask().
apparently, this doesn't work properly.


ciao,
