This is against -tip.

This patchset kills bad_dma_address variable, the old mechanism to
enable IOMMU drivers to make dma_mapping_error() work in IOMMU's
specific way.

bad_dma_address variable was introduced to enable IOMMU drivers to
make dma_mapping_error() work in IOMMU's specific way. However, it
can't handle systems that use both swiotlb and HW IOMMU. SO we
introduced dma_map_ops->mapping_error to solve that case.

Keeping those two mechanisms is pointless. Let's remove the old one.
