Subject: [PATCH net 1/3] net: mvpp2: fix the dma_mask and coherent_dma_mask settings for PPv2.2

The dev->dma_mask usually points to dev->coherent_dma_mask. This is an
issue as setting both of them will override the other. This is
problematic here as the PPv2 driver uses a 32-bit-mask for coherent
accesses (txq, rxq, bm) and a 40-bit mask for all other accesses due to
an hardware limitation.

This can lead to a memory remap for all dma_map_single() calls when
dealing with memory above 4GB.

Fixes: 2067e0a13cfe ("net: mvpp2: set dma mask and coherent dma mask on PPv2.2")
