The 64/32-bit DMA mask hackery in the EMAC driver is not actually necessary, and is technically not accurate. The EMAC hardware is limted to a 45-bit DMA address. Although no EMAC-enabled system can have that much DDR, an IOMMU could possible provide a larger address. Rather than play games with the DMA mappings, the driver should provide a correct value and trust the DMA/IOMMU layers to do the right thing.
