Still, I've worked in the vm_map_pages() stuff pending in MM and given them
the same treatment to finish the picture. Both x86_64_defconfig and
i386_defconfig do indeed compile and link fine as I expected, so I really
would like to understand the concern around #ifdefs better.

This looks generally fine to me. One thing I'd like to do is to
generally make use of the fact that __iommu_dma_get_pages returns NULL
for the force contigous case as that cleans up a few things. Also
for the !DMA_REMAP case we need to try the page allocator when
dma_alloc_from_contiguous does not return a page. What do you thing
of the following incremental diff? If that is fine with you I can
fold that in and add back in the remaining patches from my series
not obsoleted by your patches and resend.

Wouldn't this suffice? Since we also use alloc_pages() in the coherent atomic case, the free path should already be able to deal with it.

Let me take a proper look at v3 and see how it all looks in context.

Robin.
