If coherent_dma_mask is DMA_BIT_MASK(64), then you will overflow and
have a size of 0. There may also be a problem when the mask is only
32-bit type.

The mask is always a 64-bit type, it's not optional. But you are right,
the 64-bit mask case is broken, so I guess we have to fix it differently
by always passing the smaller value into arch_setup_dma_ops and
adapting that function instead.
Arnd,

What is the smaller value you are referring to in the below code? between *dev->dma_mask and size from DT? But overflow can still happen when size is to be calculated in arch_setup_dma_ops() for Non DT case or when DT size is configured to be equivalent of DMA_BIT_MASK(64) + 1. Can we discuss the code change you have in mind when you get a chance?
