Is this related at all to the make_local_pdev() hacks in megaraid.c?
The intent there seems to be to use a 32-bit DMA mask for certain
transactions and a 64-bit mask for others. But I think it's actually
broken, because the implementation changes the mask to 32-bit for
*all* future transactions, not just the one using make_local_pdev().

Help me understand what's going on here. My understanding is that on
typical systems, the 32-bit DMA space is a subset of the 64-bit DMA
space. In conventional PCI, "a master that supports 64-bit addressing
must generate a SAC, instead of a DAC, when the upper 32 bits of the
address are zero" (PCI spec r3.0, sec 3.9). PCIe doesn't have
SAC/DAC, but it has both 32-bit and 64-bit address headers and has a
similar requirement: "For Addresses below 4GB, Requesters must use the
32-bit format" (PCIe spec r3.0, sec 2.2.4.1).

Those imply to me that the 0-4GB region of the 64-bit DMA space must
be identical to the 0-4GB 32-bit DMA space, and in fact, the receiver
of a transaction shouldn't be able to distinguish them.

But it sounds like something's different on TILE-Gx? Does it
translate bus addresses to physical memory addresses based on the type
of the transaction (SAC vs DAC, or 32-bit vs 64-bit header) in
addition to the address? Even if it does, the spec doesn't allow a
DAC cycle or a 64-bit header where the 32 high-order bits are zero, so
it shouldn't matter.
