This patchset removes useless ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD:

- ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD is irrelevant to the majority of architectures but
  they have to define it.

- ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD definition is inconsistent on architectures; ISA
  DMA addressing restriction, DMA addressing restriction or something
  else.

- Everyone (except for SCSI) uses dma_mask instead of ancient
  ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD.

Only SCSI uses ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD for ancient drivers with non-zero
unchecked_isa_dma. We can safely remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD usage in
SCSI. So we can clean up ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD on the whole tree.
