As explained in the thread, the dma_addr_t address is based on the kernel
and processor's viewpoint, which has DRAM at an offset. This particular
peripheral (and some others, such as display and video decoder) on Allwinner
platforms do DMA on the separate memory bus directly, which does _not_
have that memory offset. This is specific to our hardware. And also mentioned
is that there is no sensible representation in the device tree that would
allow the DMA API to do proper address translation.

Just throwing it out there, maybe we could do a dummy IOMMU that does the
simple translation of (addr - PHYS_OFFSET)? Still I'm not sure if the device
tree representation would be sane.
