You really need to check the return value from this: this function
negotiates with the architecture, and if 64-bit DMA is not supported,
then the call will fail and you as a driver are expected to fall back
to 32-bit DMA only.

In that case, you're expected to call the same function with a 32-bit
mask, and if that fails, you're supposed to then decide that DMA is
not possible.
