DEFINE_PROP_DMAADDR() lets you wrap a property around a dma_addr_t
member without assuming anything about dma_addr_t.

If we use its (trivial) expansion instead, we assume dma_addr_t is
uint64_t.

Whether that's worth avoiding I can't say.  Depends on how much the
abstraction leaks in other ways.  Thoughts?
