I'll get to the rest of the review later, but this is a weird pattern
that we have in several bcm2835-related drivers.

We need the address as seen by the DMA controller, not the address from
the ARM's perspective (which is offset by the dma-ranges DT property).
This is the way that people have figured out to get that address.
