[PATCH] Fix uses of dma_max_pfn() when converting to a limiting address

We must use a 64-bit for this, otherwise overflowed bits get lost, and
that can result in a lower than intended value set.

While poking about with the Cubox-i4 and investigating why my UHS-1
SD card wasn't achieving its full potential, I came across a slight
problem... the SDHCI host sets a mask of 0xffffffff, but with the
start of memory at pfn 0x10000, the blk code sees this when setting
the bounce limit:
max addr 0x0ffff000 bounce limit 0xffff dma 1
and this results in the bounce functions appearing in the profile:
00000000c00f8b70 copy_to_high_bio_irq 1139 2.5886
00000000c00f8d28 bounce_end_io 12 0.0714
00000000c00f8dd0 bounce_end_io_read_isa 8 0.1053
which, compared to the cost of copying the data to userland and
request handling, this is quite significant:
00000000c04b1794 sdhci_request 268 0.5447
00000000c02d0740 __copy_to_user_std 398 0.4252
With this calculation fixed, we avoid the bouncing code entirely.
max addr 0x10ffff000 bounce limit 0x10ffff dma 0
