All? No, only a few... For PCI, usually pci_set_dma_mask() and pci_set_consistent_dma_mask() are used, of course.

Hmm, ok I was wrong. I took this code from the ASoC at91 driver.

Unfortunately, I don't understand what this code is trying to do. The AT91 driver isn't documented, so I don't even know if I need it. Can someone explain what all this is? What's the alternative to using a static global?
