The STLB and the first command buffer (which is used to set up the TLBs) has a 32 bit size restriction in hardware. There seems to be no way to specify addresses larger than 32 bit. Keep it simple and restict the addresses to the lower 4 GiB range for all coherent DMA memory allocations. Please note, that platform_device_alloc() will initialize dev->dma_mask to point to pdev->platform_dma_mask, thus dma_set_mask() will work as expected. While at it, move the dma_mask setup code to the of_dma_configure() to keep all the DMA setup code next to each other.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
