[PATCH] x86: dma-mapping: Fix arch_dma_alloc_attrs() oops with NULL dev

Commit 6894258eda2f ("dma-mapping: consolidate dma_{alloc,free}_{attrs,coherent}")
broke drivers that pass NULL as the device for dma_alloc.
Fix things by moving the ISA DMA fallback dev assignment earlier.

A quick search suggest that Meelis Roos has hit this with sb16, and I
caught it with smsc-ircc2. Here's the oops I got:
