Can you add a comment why you are fixing it? Is there a bug report for this?
Under what conditions did you expose this fault?

You also might want to mention that "needn't be a physical address as
a hardware IOMMU can (and most likely) will return a bus address where
physical != bus address."

Otherwise you can stick 'Reviewed-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@...cle.com>'
on it.
