PowerPC platform only supports ZONE_DMA zone for 64bit kernel, so all the memory will be put into this zone. If the memory size is greater than the device's DMA capability and device uses dma_alloc_coherent to allocate memory, it will get an address which is over the device's DMA addressing, the device will fail.
So we split the memory to two zones: zone ZONE_DMA32 & ZONE_NORMAL, since we already allocate PCICSRBAR/PEXCSRBAR right below the 4G boundary (if the lowest PCI address is above 4G), so we constrain the DMA zone ZONE_DMA32 to 2GB, also, we clear flag __GFP_DMA & __GFP_DMA32 and set __GFP_DMA32 only if the device's dma_mask < total memory size. By doing this, devices which cannot DMA all the memory will be limited to ZONE_DMA32, but devices which can DMA all the memory will not be affected by this limitation.
