Yes, this looks like a sign-extension bug somewhere. But its not in the
amd-iommu driver, because dma-debug also sees it. And from what I can
tell the dma-api interface seems to be fine. It consistently uses
dma_addr_t to pass these values around.

Where can I find the source of the failing code? I need exactly the code
version that triggers the problem.
