Thanks for putting this together. I had a minor comment but the patches
look fine to me. We still need an ack from Rob on the DT patch and I can
queue the series for 5.11.
I'm preparing a v6 unifying both functions as you suggested.

Could you please also test the patch below on top of this series? It's
the removal of the implied DMA offset in the max_zone_phys()
calculation.
Yes, happily. Comments below.

Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Ignore any DMA offsets in the max_zone_phys()
 calculation

Currently, the kernel assumes that if RAM starts above 32-bit (or
zone_bits), there is still a ZONE_DMA/DMA32 at the bottom of the RAM and
such constrained devices have a hardwired DMA offset. In practice, we
haven't noticed any such hardware so let's assume that we can expand
ZONE_DMA32 to the available memory if no RAM below 4GB. Similarly,
ZONE_DMA is expanded to the 4GB limit if no RAM addressable by
zone_bits.

Maybe use DMA_BIT_MASK(), instead of the manual calculation?
Yes.

I'd suggest using 'bigger than' instead of masks. Just to cover ourselves
against memory starting at odd locations. Also it'll behaves properly when
phys_start is zero (this breaks things on RPi4).
Good point.

This + 1 isn't going to play well when zone_mask is PHYS_ADDR_MAX.
You are right on PHYS_ADDR_MAX overflowing but I'd keep the +1 since
memblock_end_of_DRAM() returns the first byte past the accessible range
(so exclusive end).

I'll tweak this function a bit to avoid the overflow or use the
arm64-specific PHYS_MASK (that's never going to be the full 64 bits).

Thanks.
