This can't be correct.

So the original patch takes the shifted dct_base while your change
doesn't anymore...

... and while this comparison shifts sys_addr to use the proper bits,
the code does this assignment later:

chan_offset = dct_base;

Now, chan_offset has the << 27 version of dct_base which makes the following
calculation wrong:

chan_addr = sys_addr - chan_offset;

because sys_addr is the full 64-bit, unshifted value.

The right thing to do would be to do:

chan_offset = dct_base << 27;

Or am I missing something?
