Subject: [RFC 0/7] Fixing dma mask setting in various network drivers

While looking at the way coherent DMA masks are handled (and the
fact many drivers write directly to the mask) I stumbled across
this set of oddities in various network drivers, which looks like
it's been cut'n'pasted.

I haven't yet tested these patches in any way, which is one reason
I'm sending them out as an RFC.  The other reason is to find out
if other people agree that these are indeed fixes.

The full patchset will be sent to netdev only, the remainder will
be Cc'd depending on the individual driver being modified.  Each
patch is independent of each other.
