Have you considered using a PFN type address here? I suspect you
can prove that shifting the DMA address by PAGE_BITS would
make it fit into an 'unsigned long' on all 32-bit architectures with
64-bit dma_addr_t. This requires that page->dma_addr to be
page aligned, as well as fit into 44 bits. I recently went through the
maximum address space per architecture to define a
MAX_POSSIBLE_PHYSMEM_BITS, and none of them have more than
40 here, presumably the same is true for dma address space.
