Hmm, this was derived from:

#define page_to_phys(page)((dma_addr_t)page_to_pfn(page) << PAGE_SHIFT)

in arch/x86/include/asm/io.h

The primary users of __pfn_to_phys() is dma_map_page().  I'll add a
comment to that effect.

Why dma_addr_t and not phys_addr_t?  i.e. it could use a comment if it
is correct.
