If there exists addressing limitations and IOVA mode is VA, this starting address is likely too high for those devices. However, it is possible to use a lower address in the process virtual address space as with 64 bits there is a lot of available space. This patch adds an address hint as starting address for 64 bits systems. Applicable to v17.11.3 only.
