Are you sure about this? A user of dmabounce gets to request any mask
with the original code (even though it was never written back... which
is a separate bug.) After this, it seems that this will get limited
by the dma_supported() check. As this old code is about bouncing any
buffer into DMA-able memory, it doesn't care about the DMA mask.
