It says the API can also be used for other machines, I'm not that sure
about the implementation (although most of it should be generic enough).
For pci_alloc_consistent() it says to pass NULL for non-PCI devices and
mentions only (E)ISA, what sounds like it's just meant for the normal pc
architecture.
Anyway, shouldn't the bus need any special consideration, it should work
as well, but then I'd prefer a better naming.
