I'd prefer so yes.

Can you explain why?  Got no issue with doing this, but its good to  
know hy.

Just in case ... let's not modify 64 bits behaviour especially to
something that will ultimately go away. I prefer failing if DMA ops are
not set rather than using a set of ops that will cause DMA to the wrong
place.
 

Also, any ideas on how to handle setting dev->archdata for non-PCI  
devices would be welcome.

This has to be done by whoever creates the struct device. Can be a bit
annoying with platform devices, I agree. One way to do it is to use the
bus notifiers mechanism, which allows you for example to have a default
for any platform device.
