Subject: [PATCH 1/7] core, dma-direct: add a flag 32-bit dma limits

Various PCI bridges (VIA PCI, Xilinx PCIe) limit DMA to only 32-bits
even if the device itself supports more.  Add a single bit flag to
struct device (to be moved into the dma extension once we around it)
to flag such devices and reject larger DMA to them.
