Expand the dma_mask of fsldma device to 36-bit, indicating that the
DMA engine can deal with 36-bit physical address and does not need
the SWIOTLB to create bounce buffer for it when doing dma_map_*().

Is there any reason we shouldn't set DMA_BIT_MASK(64) since the DMA block programming model allows the address to be 64-bits?

The current code is only verified on chips with 36-bit physical address.  I'm not sure if the driver can work without any change on the 64-bit chip, although the register model suggests it can work well with 64-bit.  If you can confirm that it's compatible with the block on 64-bit chip, then we can change it to 64 bit dma mask.

Can you explain that?  The DMA registers only have room for 36 bits
for the physical address.

The programming model (if you look at the free-space in the registers and data structures) supports a 64-bit address.  I'm trying to avoid changing the driver in the future if we have >36-bit.  However this is such a minor worry that I'll stop and just ack the patch as is.

I must still be missing something.  I'm looking at the description of
the SATR register in the MPC8572 RM, and it shows this:

0 - 3 |   4 - 5   |     6     |   7  |   8 - 11  |   12 - 15  | 16-21 | 22-31
 ---  | STFLOWLVL | SPCIORDER | SSME | STRANSINT | SREADTTYPE |  ---  |  ESAD

The most that we can extend ESAD to is 16 bits, for a total of a
48-bit physical address.  Where are the other 16 bits supposed to go?

I was looking at the link addresses.  I stand corrected so our max is 48-bits.

Looks like 42 bits -- just because bits 16-21 could be used to extend
ESAD doesn't mean that they have been.
