It does indeed, but I'm comparing CMA's base with bitmasks that don't take into account where the memory starts. Say memory starts at 0x80000000, and CMA falls into ZONE_DMA [0x80000000 0xC0000000], if you want to compare it with DMA_BIT_MASK(zone_dma_bits) you're forced to unify the memory bases. That said, I now realize that this doesn't work for ZONE_DMA32 which has a hard limit on 32bit addresses reglardless of the memory base. That said I still need to call memblock_start_of_DRAM() any suggestions WRT that? I could save the value in dma_atomic_pool_init(), which is __init code.
