Can do for the sync and unmap cases - the alloc_pages one needs to avoid 
truncation in the comparison if dma_addr_t and phys_addr_t are different 
sizes, so can't safely cast one to the other either way. I can at least 
get rid of the u64 casts there though, as they seem superfluous after a 
bit of experimentation and another read of the good old "Usual 
arithmetic conversions". I'll fix up and repost.
