The Spacemit K3 Pico ITX has a RTL8852BE Wifi card attached via PCIe.
The probe for the rtw89 driver currently fails because driver tries to
allocate a kernel page with GFP_DMA32, and this board has memory only
above the 32 bit range. The rtw89 driver has the ability to use 36 bit
DMA addresses, but this is only enabled for certain PCIe bridge/rootport
that have been validated to work on. Enable this ability for the PCIe
root port. A similar patch seems to exist in the vendor kernel tree.

To test this, you'll need the 3 patch series adding the K3 PCIe RC
Driver[1], K3 PCIe Phy[2] and K3 PCIe DTS[3].I have marked only [1] as
a depedency in b4 because this series doesn't depend on [2] or [3] to be
applied cleanly.

Inochi, Patch 1 could be potentially be merged in with your series [1],
any thougts on this?

One question I had was about whether the IOMMU on the K3 could be used
to do DMA mappings and allow the wifi card to work with a 32 bit virtual
address. The K3's IOMMU isn't supported currently in the kernel DT. It
seems to not be enabled in the vendor kernel too. Even if the IOMMU was
enabled, I'm not sure if it would help with this exact problem. The fix
proposed in this patch works to solve this problem, so I've sent it to
the list.
