To add a bit of vendor flexibility with various virtio based devices, allow the caller to specify a different DMA mask. This adds a dma_mask field to struct virtio_pci_modern_device. If defined by the driver, this mask will be used in a call to dma_set_mask_and_coherent() instead of the traditional DMA_BIT_MASK(64). This allows limiting the DMA space on vendor devices with address limitations.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
