block: fix queue bounce limit setting



Impact: don't set GFP_DMA in q->bounce_gfp unnecessarily

All DMA address limits are expressed in terms of the last addressable
unit (byte or page) instead of one plus that.  However, when
determining bounce_gfp for 64bit machines in blk_queue_bounce_limit(),
it compares the specified limit against 0x100000000UL to determine
whether it's below 4G ending up falsely setting GFP_DMA in
q->bounce_gfp.

As DMA zone is very small on x86_64, this makes larger SG_IO transfers
very eager to trigger OOM killer.  Fix it.  While at it, rename the
parameter to @dma_mask for clarity and convert comment to proper
winged style.
