    BTW, the above patch breaks IA64 build.

    It's fixable but I think that it would be better to just drop this
    huge patch and add some cast in powerpc code. the types of SWIOTBL
    function arguments don't need to mach to DAM_API.txt though it might
    be nice if so. There are other type mismatches. If we really want to
    do this cleanups, we should fix up all the mismatches.
