Perhaps we should have a dma_mask in platform/of_platform device
structs? The driver knows best how many bits it can shove into a DMA
address register, and it would let us avoid hardcoding 36 bits into this
code.
What other platform-specific behavior do you have in mind? Could we
supply a default implementation that platforms can override if they need
something weird, rather than duplicating it per soc family?
