There's two issues here:
1. dma_set_mask_and_coherent() will only work if dev->dma_mask points at
   some storage for the mask.  This needs to have .dma_mask in the
   platform_device_info initialised.

2. Yes, this driver should also be calling the appropriate DMA mask setting
   functions in addition to having the mask initialized at device creation
   time.

Here's a replacement patch, though maybe it would be better to roll all
the additions of dma_set_mask_and_coherent() in drivers/dma into one
patch?  In other words, combine the addition of this with these two
patches:

	dma: pl330: add dma_set_mask_and_coherent() call
	dma: pl08x: add dma_set_mask_and_coherent() call

 masks

register_platform_device_full() can setup the DMA mask provided the
appropriate member is set in struct platform_device_info.  So lets
make that be the case.  This avoids a direct reference to the DMA
masks by this driver.

While here, add the dma_set_mask_and_coherent() call which the DMA API
requires DMA-using drivers to call.
