Sure, will check out.

I'm not seeing that at all. On the evaluation of each dma-range,
dma_start and dma_end are re-evaluated to be the lowest and highest
bus values of the dma-ranges seen so far. After all dma-ranges are
examined, dev->bus_dma_limit being set to the highest. In fact, the
current code -- ie before my commits -- already does this for multiple
dma-ranges as long as the cpu-bus offset is the same in the
dma-ranges.

Good point.

Yes, I agree. I want to avoid coding and testing one solution only to
have a different reviewer NAK it.
