during my final round of tests for v2 of the patchset I found a problem with
the current implementation regarding dma_pfn_offset. Right now it asumes that
dma addresses are lower than physical addresses, which probably came from the
sh7786 usage (at least that's how I understand the SH7786 datasheet). But for
IP27 physical addresses starts at 0 and dma address is more at the end of the
64bit address space. So using following patch gets it right for IP27:

}

static inline bool dma_capable(struct device *dev, dma_addr_t addr, size_t size)

This of course will break SH7786. To fix both cases how about making dma_pfn_offset
a signed long ?
