I don't think this belongs in the _mem_ namespace. It is usually used 
for things to do with memory, while the DMA mask IMO sits firmly in the 
domain of EAL, specifically bus subsystem.

However, i don't have strong feelings one way or the other, so if you do 
decide to go forward with this naming...

...then this should be in alphabetical order.
