Subject: [PATCH 2/2] swiotlb: Fix dma_supported() to consider direct allocation

Along with the recent change to use the common swiotlb dma_ops, x86
also takes over the swiotlb_dma_supported().  This caused a regression
when a low bit DMA mask is set; e.g. parport_pc driver now fails to
set the 24bit DMA mask:

  parport_pc parport_pc.956: Unable to set coherent dma mask: disabling DMA

It's because swiotlb_dma_supported() only checks the swiotlb range,
and the 24bit DMA mask is below io_tlb_end.  OTOH, in the past kernel
versions, x86's swiotlb dma_supported() was NULL, which was
effectively evaluated as the direct DMA, hence the lower DMA mask was
allowed.

This patch fixes the regression by extending swiotlb_dma_supported()
to check the direct DMA at first for covering the primary allocation
before swiotlb.

Fixes: 6e4bf5867783 ("x86/dma: Use generic swiotlb_ops")
