On an x86_64 system w/ Intel IOMMU. I wasn't able to complete boot and all probe attempts for various devices were failing with -EIO errors. I believe the last mask check should be "if (mask < phys_to_dma(dev, min_mask))" not a ">=" check.
Right, that test is backwards. I needed to change it here too (powermac with the rest of the powerpc series). Cheers, Ben.
