In current chipidea structure, the parent (glue layer) driver will not be

        pdev->dev.dma_mask = dev->dma_mask; /* this device is parent */
        dma_set_coherent_mask(&pdev->dev, dev->coherent_dma_mask);

Would you suggestion us a suitable way? Or it is ok we use just Antoine's way that
call dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent(&pdev->dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(32)) at parent
driver no matter dt or non-dt? Thanks.

dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent is not ok, it will force a dma mask that is
unrelated to the actual requirements of the hardware.

I think the best way would be to never use the child device pointer for
DMA operations, just use a pointer to the parent device and make the
child dev->dma_mask pointer NULL to ensure all DMA operations fail.
