The DMA mask is set here:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.7/drivers/ata/ahci.c#L967

And should be called using:
hpriv->cap & HOST_CAP_64
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.7/drivers/ata/ahci.c#L1929

Where hpriv->cap is capabilities reported by the AHCI controller itself.
So it definitely seems like your controller supports 64-bit addressing.

I guess it could be some problem with your BIOS.
Have you tried updating your BIOS?


If that does not work, perhaps you could try this (completely untested) patch:
(You might need to modify the strings to match the exact strings reported by
your BIOS.)

If it works, we need to add a specific BIOS version too, see e.g.
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.7/drivers/ata/ahci.c#L1310
