I have tested this on my AMD Overdrive so

Tested-by: Graeme Gregory <graeme.gregory@...aro.org>

But to actually get my r8169 network card working I also need the
following patch.

diff --git a/drivers/pci/probe.c b/drivers/pci/probe.c

I suspect we need to set coherent_dma_mask somewhere in the platform but I do
not know where this should happen. Hopefully an ARM64 expert can help.
