Hi Danilo et al.,

In Linus' tree and -next, for an arm32 LLVM defconfig plus Rust build, I see:

    error[E0308]: mismatched types

    error: this arithmetic operation will overflow

    469 |             .set_base((dma_start >> 40) as u16)
        |                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ attempt to shift right by `40_i32`, which would overflow
        |
        = note: `#[deny(arithmetic_overflow)]` on by default

Similar to another one I sent, I hope it helps -- it may be useful to make it
build in 32-bit as a test for those kinds of platforms.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel
