Note that this whole code is bogus :-) You cannot just assume that 0 is
a invalid DMA address. It is not. In fact, while you can check if a
dma_addr_t is invalid using dma_mapping_error(), the generic APIs
don't provide you with a magic "bad" value you can use for what you are
trying to do.

Granted, I think we should make our iommu code reserve the first page
for the sake of everybody's sanity and to avoid such pitfalls, but
this code is wrong with today iommu implementations.

Cheers,
Ben.
