I'd like to clarify few points here:
- the default dma_mask = DMA_BIT_MASK(32); assigned here to keep
backward compatibility with existing DT files at the moment when
of_dma_configure() has been introduced and it satisfies most of the cases
- if HW require specific DMA configuration then "dma-ranges" property have to be
defined and of_dma_configure() will take care of it just few lines down.
including parent-child case - as it will try to find "dma-ranes" prop in parent node
when called for child dev.

Personally, I think Arnd's approach should work, if the problem of selecting of proper
sysdev/dma_dev device will be solved.

Wouldn't it work if is_device_dma_capable() will be used?

For DT-case, the device DMA properties have to be configured from DT. So, now
there are 2 cases for dwc3:
1) dwc3-glue (of_dma)
|- dwc3 (of_dma)
|- xhci-plat (manual)
better to use dwc3-glue as sysdev, but can use dwc3 also

2) (arch/arm/boot/dts/ls1021a.dtsi)
|- dwc3 (of_dma)
|- xhci-plat (manual)
need to use dwc3 as sysdev


dwc3: probe()
if (!&pdev->dev->of_node)
legacy case - hard-code DMA props
dwc->sysdev = &pdev->dev;
else
dev = &pdev->dev;
do {
if (is_device_dma_capable(dev)) {
dwc->sysdev = dev;
break;
}
dev = dev->parent;
while (dev);
^this cycle can be limited in depth (2 for PCI)

if (!dwc->sysdev)
oops;

xhci_plat_probe:
do the same

Wouldn't above work for other cases PCI/ACPI?
