How do ISA devices (iow, those which pass a NULL device) work with this?
This looks to me like it ends up breaking some drivers.

I've also seen some drivers (such as the Freescale FEC driver) which
perform DMA coherent allocations with a NULL device - technically, that's
a bug in the driver, but the above change will cause them to regress.

improving, and getting towards what was expected from it.
