That's slightly different from what I want to do here. The purpose of
this part of the patch is that when the SDHCI hardware supports only 32
bits of address space, then we want to prevent 64-bit addressing mode
from being used because it isn't useful.

So what we do want to check here is the DMA mask configured by the
driver (or the default set by the bus, or wherever it came from).
dma_get_required_mask() returns the DMA mask required to address all of
system memory. That would perhaps be a useful additional check, but it's
orthogonal to what I'm trying to do here.

Is there something else appropriate that I could use to query the DMA
mask set for a device?
