ARM: 8617/1: dma: fix dma_max_pfn()
Since commit 6ce0d2001692 ("ARM: dma: Use dma_pfn_offset for dma address translation"), dma_to_pfn() already returns the PFN with the physical memory start offset so we don't need to add it again. This fixes USB mass storage lock-up problem on systems that can't do DMA over the entire physical memory range (e.g.) Keystone 2 systems with 4GB RAM can only do DMA over the first 2GB. [K2E-EVM]. What happens there is that without this patch SCSI layer sets a wrong bounce buffer limit in scsi_calculate_bounce_limit() for the USB mass storage device. dma_max_pfn() evaluates to 0x8fffff and bounce_limit is set to 0x8fffff000 whereas maximum DMA'ble physical memory on Keystone 2 is 0x87fffffff. This results in non DMA'ble pages being given to the USB controller and hence the lock-up. NOTE: in the above case, USB-SCSI-device's dma_pfn_offset was showing as 0. This should have really been 0x780000 as on K2e, LOWMEM_START is 0x80000000 and HIGHMEM_START is 0x800000000. DMA zone is 2GB so dma_max_pfn should be 0x87ffff. The incorrect dma_pfn_offset for the USB storage device is because USB devices are not correctly inheriting the dma_pfn_offset from the USB host controller. This will be fixed by a separate patch.
