[PATCH kernel] powerpc/powernv/ioda2: Reduce upper limit for DMA window size (retry)

We use PHB in mode1 which uses bit 59 to select a correct DMA window.
However there is mode2 which uses bits 59:55 and allows up to 32 DMA
windows per a PE.
Even though documentation does not clearly specify that, it seems that
the actual hardware does not support bits 59:55 even in mode1, in other
words we can create a window as big as 1<<58 but DMA simply won't work.
This reduces the upper limit from 59 to 55 bits to let the userspace know
about the hardware limits.
Fixes: ce57c6610cc2 "Merge branch 'topic/ppc-kvm' into next"
