I like it, but I think it could be better.  A lot of drivers want
64-bit streaming DMA but 32-bit consistent DMA.  So how about this:

int pci_set_dac(struct pci_dev *dev, int flags)
{
	int err;

	if (flags == 0)
		goto 32bit;

	if (flags & PCI_DAC_EN) {
		if (pci_set_dma_mask(dev, 0xffffffffffffffffULL)) {
			flags = 0;
			goto 32bit;
		}
	}

	if (flags & PCI_DAC_CONS_EN) {
		if (pci_set_consistent_dma_mask(dev, 0xffffffffffffffffULL)) {
			printk(KERN_WARNING
			       "PCI(%s): Unable to obtain 64 bit DMA "
			       "for consistent allocations\n", pci_name(dev));
			flags &= ~PCI_DAC_CONS_EN;
		}
	}

	return flags;

 32bit:
	err = pci_set_dma_mask(dev, 0xffffffffULL);
	if (err)
		printk(KERN_ERR "PCI(%s): No usable DMA configuration",
		       pci_name(dev));
	return err;
}

I note ithat both this and your patch will lead to two errors being
printed on 64-bit consistent failure; one by tg3 and one by the PCI
layer; this seems suboptimal.  I suspect you want to do away with the
error printk in the tg3 driver.
