Re: [PATCH] move consistent_dma_mask to the generic device

[Jeremy Higdon]

I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but it looks good.

If you're going to get rid of pci_dev.consistent_dma_mask in favor
of pci_dev.dev.coherent_dma_mask, would you want to do the same
with pci_dev.dma_mask?

Which brings to mind a second question; why is device.dma_mask
a u64 * instead of u64?  Does it typically point to pci_dev.dma_mask?

thanks
