Colin, you've sent this patch before on Feb 16, 2019.  If you shift by
32 then it's undefined behavior on 32 bit systems.  The correct fix is
to move the cast which was what your original patch did actually.

			(((dma_addr_t)m_sg->baseaddr_h << 16) << 16);

My suggestion back then was to introduce a macro:

/*
 * The dma_addr_t type can be either 32 or 64 bit.  Left shifting a 32
 * bit number is undefined so this do two 16 bit left shifts.
 *
 */
#define DMA_LSHIFT_32(val) (((dma_addr_t)(val) << 16) << 16)
