Would you minding adding the following detail in the commit message?

- BEGIN -
AMD Seattle supports 40-bit DMA, which includes two ranges:
    1. GICv2m MSI register frame at 0xe0080000
    2. DRAM range [0x8000000000 to 0xffffffffff]

Since the current parsing logic handles only single range, this patch
specifies the range from zero to 0x10000000000 to cover the whole
40-bit range.

However, it expects DMA allocation/mapping logic to check the specified
DMA range against the reported DRAM range, which starts from
0x8000000000 in this case.

Thanks for the pointer. I didn¹t notice that. I¹ll fix that for the future.
