[PATCH kernel] powerpc/iommu: Report the correct most efficient DMA mask for PCI devices
According to dma-api.rst, the dma_get_required_mask() helper should return
"the mask that the platform requires to operate efficiently". Which in
the case of PPC64 means the bypass mask and not a mask from an IOMMU table
which is shorter and slower to use due to map/unmap operations (especially
expensive on "pseries").
However the existing implementation ignores the possibility of bypassing
and returns the IOMMU table mask on the pseries platform which makes some
drivers (mpt3sas is one example) choose 32bit DMA even though bypass is
supported. The powernv platform sort of handles it by having a bigger
default window with a mask >=40 but it only works as drivers choose
63/64bit if the required mask is >32 which is rather pointless.
This reintroduces the bypass capability check to let drivers make
a better choice of the DMA mask.
Fixes: f1565c24b596 ("powerpc: use the generic dma_ops_bypass mode")
