This patch resolves a (bogus) clang warning that breaks the build with
-Werror. Can you please queue this for a future DMA fixes pull request?
This has been available for almost a month and really should have made
the original 6.18 pull request but I dropped the ball on pinging again
before it went out since I was dealing with Kbuild this cycle.

Cheers,
