As a hack to check that theory I've pushed a new commit to the
powerpc-dma.6-debug branch to use old powerpc GFP_DMA selection
with the new dma direct code:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git/commitdiff/5c532d07c2f3c3972104de505d06b8d85f403f06

And another one that drops the addressability checks that powerpc
never had:

Can you first test with both patches, and then just with the first
in case that worked?
