I think for now it's safer to leave the DMA mask at the default (32 >

The GPUs after Tegra114 can choose per access whether they're using IOMMU or not. The interface is 34 bits wide, so the physical addresses can be 34 bits. IOMMU addresses are limited by Tegra SMMU to 32-bit for gk20a. gm20b can use 34-bit if SMMU is configured to combine four ASIDs together.
This particular patch sets up the DMA mask for the display engines. But yes, most of the above holds true for that case as well, except that as far as I know there is no mechanism to have the display engines choose per access, whether or not to use the SMMU.
