Subject: [PATCH net-next 01/10] ixgb: Remove useless DMA-32 fallback configuration

From: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@...adoo.fr>

As stated in [1], dma_set_mask() with a 64-bit mask never fails if
dev->dma_mask is non-NULL.
So, if it fails, the 32 bits case will also fail for the same reason.

So, if dma_set_mask_and_coherent() succeeds, 'pci_using_dac' is known to be
1.

Simplify code and remove some dead code accordingly.
