[ Upstream commit d3d4ffaae439981e1e441ebb125aa3588627c5d8 ] We use PHB in mode1 which uses bit 59 to select a correct DMA window. However there is mode2 which uses bits 59:55 and allows up to 32 DMA windows per a PE. Even though documentation does not clearly specify that, it seems that the actual hardware does not support bits 59:55 even in mode1, in other words we can create a window as big as 1<<58 but DMA simply won't work. This reduces the upper limit from 59 to 55 bits to let the userspace know about the hardware limits.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
