Thanks for your patch!

So we get two 64-bit words on 64-bit platforms, while only one is
needed?

Would

    unsigned long _dma_addr[sizeof(dma_addr_t) / sizeof(unsigned long)];

work?

Or will the compiler become too overzealous, and warn about the use
of ...[1] below, even when unreachable?
I wouldn't mind an #ifdef instead of an if () in the code below, though.

We don't seem to have a handy macro for a 32-bit left shift yet...

But you can also avoid the warning using

    ret |= (u64)page->dma_addr[1] << 32;

... but we do have upper_32_bits() for a 32-bit right shift.
