Right, so the logic of my series, goes like this:

a) We currently are assuming DMA_PAGE_SHIFT (conceptual constant) is
PAGE_SHIFT everywhere, including Power.

b) After 2/7, the Power code will return either the IOMMU table's shift
value, if set, or PAGE_SHIFT (I guess this would be the case if
get_dma_ops(dev) == &dma_direct_ops, as you said). That is no different
than we have now, except we can return the accurate IOMMU value if
available.

3) After 3/7, the platform can override the generic Power
get_dma_page_shift().

4) After 4/7, pseries will return the DDW value, if available, then
fallback to the IOMMU table's value. I think in the case of
get_dma_ops(dev)==&dma_direct_ops, the only way that can happen is if we
are using DDW, right?
