Yeah. You're right. Thanks.

The original patch is the right fix. Although it sort of feels like the
double shift should be a macro.

/*
* The dma_addr_t type can be either 32 or 64 bit. Left shifting a 32
* bit number is undefined so this do two 16 bit left shifts.
*
*/
#define DMA_LSHIFT_32(val) (((dma_addr_t)(val) << 16) << 16)
