What is this check supposed to be for in the first place? 0 is a valid
DMA address, because it's also a valid physical address, and I recall
RAM at PA 0 on Hikey 960 flushing out some bugs in the past when we
tried to use 0 for DMA_MAPPING_ERROR. All the Gemini DTs appear to show
RAM starting at PA 0 too, so I'd have to guess that it's simply the case
that your DMA buffer happened to end up using that particular page.
