Fine, but that is not how of_dma_get_range currently behaves:

+       *dma_addr = of_read_number(ranges, naddr);
+       *paddr = of_translate_dma_address(np, ranges);
+       if (*paddr == OF_BAD_ADDR) {
+               pr_err("%s: translation of DMA address(%pad) to CPU
address failed node(%s)\n",
+                      __func__, dma_addr, np->full_name);
+               ret = -EINVAL;
+       }
