I will add more description on why I changed it to dma_alloc_coherent():
- to explictly support devices like mt8173-nor which only supports
32bit addressing for dma.
And it also reminded me an another problem, (I won't address this
issue for now in v3):
as this device is using dma range as [start, end) format
where 'end' can be zero in that corner case of {start = 0xffff_f000; end = 0; }

yeah, good idea.

okay, I'll use padding again in v3.

Yep, I'll restore the padding.
