nitpick ... to be completely "correct", I would have written

if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ZONE_DMA))
min_mask = DMA_BIT_MASK(ARCH_ZONE_DMA_BITS);
else
min_mask = DMA_BIT_MASK(32);

min_mask = min_t(u64, min_mask, (max_pfn - 1) << PAGE_SHIFT);

In "theory" it's also ok to have a mask < ZONE_DMA_BITS as long as it's
big enough to fit all memory :-)

Yeah, we could do that.

FWIW I like it even if just for looking slightly more readable. With that fixup,
