WRT that patch, the original intent of "force_dma" was purely to consider a device DMA-capable regardless of the presence of "dma-ranges". Expecting of_dma_configure() to do anything for a non-OF device has always been bogus - magic paravirt devices which appear out of nowhere and expect to be treated as genuine DMA masters are a separate problem that we haven't really approached yet.
