Update jumbo_frm() (implemented in both "chain_mode.c" and "ring_mode.c")
to ensure DMA errors don't get lost due to casting the result to an
integer of the wrong size. This was a Sashiko suggestion.
In addition, add explicit calls to lower_32_bits() to DMA addresses
before they are passed to cpu_to_le32(), to guarantee the type of
the converted value is u32.
Maxime implied that a new version the first patch could handle both
fixes, but I thought it better to do them separately.
