Thanks for taking a look. Apparently I misread the interface, and I assumed
that the __bus_to_virt() BUS_OFFSET in set_dma_addr() would
just cancel out the dma_map_single() in isa_enable_dma().

It turns out the logic is actually simpler and we just convert between
virtual address and bus address three times. for most drivers.

I found one driver (cs89x0-isa) that uses isa_virt_to_bus()/virt_to_phys()
instead of dma_map_single(), but that is probably never used here.
Once we move the DMA offset into the device, all other ISA devices will
also get the default zero-offset, but I think that will be fine as long as the
"isa_dma_dev" that is used for the final translation has the correct offset.

I'll try to come up with a new version tomorrow.
