Hi Robin,

FWIW we've been wanting to steer away from relying on the default mask in new code, so it would be quite neat to actually enforce that allocations fail if dma_coherent_mask hasn't been explicitly set (assuming it's sufficiently cheap to keep a flag in the Device handle or something like that - it's not the end of the world if it isn't practical).

I just had a quick look on how to possible approach this and indeed would refactor the Device binding a bit. If it is okay with you this could go in a follow-up patch? I was hoping to upstream the initial support first - at least with the dma_set_mask/dma_set_coherent_mask put in place already.

Thanks!
